Given the short length of a tweet, the presence of a URL in the tweet is a strong signal that the tweet is functioning to help Twitter users decide whether to read the full article. This class of tweets, which we call indicative tweets, represents a large subset of tweets overall, constituting more than half of the tweets in our data set. Indicative tweets would appear to be the easiest to handle using current methods in text summarization, because there is a clear source of input from which a tweet could be generated. In effect, the tweet would be acting as an indicative summary of the article it is being linked to, and it would seem that existing methods in summarization can be applied. It should be noted that a tweet being indicative does not preclude it from also providing a critical evaluation of the linked article.", |

Even with the permissive unigram match measure, we find that well under half of the tweet can be found in the linked article.

The search terms were chosen so that there would be broad representation in terms of various stylistic properties of text like formality, subjectivity, etc. For example, searches related to politics would be more formal, while those related to films would be informal, and would also have a lot more opinion pieces about them.

They also focus on finding tweets with intent and then classifying those. Banerjee et al. (2012) analyze real time data to detect presence of intents in tweets. G\u00f3mez-Adorno et al.
