It's old news to you!

PopGoesTheNews.com If you followed PopGoesTheNews.com on Twitter in February, you — once again — got some news first!

The death of Canadian artist Steve Walker was reported by @jrkm_pop (and posted here) on Feb. 9, a full five days before Xtra.ca posted the "news."

It took People.com a whopping 20 days to catch up with @jrkm_pop. On Feb. 21 the magazine posted the "news" that Halle Berry's boyfriend Olivier Martinez is opening a restaurant in Miami Beach. It was old news to followers of @jrkm_pop, where it had been reported on Feb. 1.

And if you read the "news" on TorontoLife.com on Feb. 23 that J. Crew was opening in the Eaton Centre you likely had a feeling of deja vu. That little fact was reported by @jrkm_pop on Jan. 31 — nearly a month earlier!

It's not always the only place, but @jrkm_pop is always one of the first! Free of self-aggrandizing and navel-gazing, it sticks to bringing you informative tidbits of news and keeping you in-the-know.
