I know you're trying to imply that Twitter is more advanced than the NYT, but that's simply not true. They're different products for different audiences.

Revenue at the NYT has grown between 8% and 16% yearly each year over the past 3 years. That's simply not what happens to a business that is in decline or being replaced.

But go ahead, believe in your personal narrative all you want that somehow Twitter is replacing the NYT, despite all economic evidence and usage data to the contrary.
