Business journalists on Time magazine’s top 140 Twitter feeds

Time magazine has released its 140 top Twitter feeds, and four business journalists are on the list.

CNNMoney stock columnist Paul LaMonica is one of them. Stephen Gandel writes, “He tweets 20 times a day or more, offering quick, worthy analysis on the market and the stocks that are rising or dropping the most. Just a quick glance down this feed and you will have a good feel for what happened in the market that day, or what is about to.”

Fortune.com writer Dan Primack was also named. Gandel writes, “Primack has a keen understanding of the players and deals that make up the world of Wall Street’s megabuyout funds. If you want to be up on what companies are being bought or sold or going public, Primack’s Twitter feed is the place to go.

When writing about National Public Radio’s Heidi Moore, also on the list, Gandel writes, “The former Wall Street Journal reporter and correspondent for National Public Radio is probably business journalism’s most prolific tweeter. Sure, Heidi N. Moore may overtweet — there’s much to read about her you may not care about — but wade in and you get a great peek into what it looks like on the front lines of finance.”

And then there’s Reuters blogger Felix Salmon. Gandel writes, “On his Twitter feed, Felix Salmon takes on other journalists and makes insightful observations about the economy and major business stories. His tweets about the economics of journalism may not be that relevant for general readers, but his well-chosen retweets of other economic commentators make Salmon’s feed worth following.
