What are you talking about? Before Trump was a thing, Twitter was routinely mentioned in the news. It was the lazy source of react quotes: "Today, X tragedy happened in town Y. 'UnrelatedPerson' on twitter said 'what a tragedy'".

The name is more prominent now, sure, but it already was routinely reported in the news.

These days though, Twitter is the news.

It's now "Today, Trump said X about Y on Twitter".
