There is a way to get around that.  You can set up your own live feed news page using protopage.com.  It is free with a small banner ad at top or 3.33 per month.  You can set up news feeds and set up twitter feeds without having an account or following anyone.  The other way to do it is to just go to duckduckgo and put in their twitter handle and it will come up.    I have over 50 news feeds on my page which allows me to research ten times as much in 1/10th the time.
