The introduction of the new feature is in line with Twitter's move to switch its identity from "social networking" to a "news" app which now airs live news broadcasts alongside the Home timeline.
While it is highlighting news and tweets from journalists in its "explore" tab, Twitter is also experimenting with curated timelines around breaking news events, the report said.
Earlier this month, Twitter also stated that it was committed to ensuring that the information people receive on the site is credible and authentic.

"Over the past few months, we've refined our tools, improved the speed of our response, and identified areas where we can improve," Harvey added.
