Any reason twitter.com/Bitcoin only tweets news (& price) from Coindesk and not Cointelegraph or other Bitcoin news sites? The twitter account has more than 80k followers. I believe most bitcoin news sites would like some love from them as well.

It depends on who is in control of Bitcoin's twitter account. They seem to have some sort agreement with Coindesk I think, also there is possibility that Coindesk is supposed to be the best, the biggest and most established bitcoin news source and that is the simplest reason behind it.

I'm sorry but this is simply unacceptable. There's no such thing as what you said.
Even the dollar "should" be the most established currency right?

I am pretty sure that this handle is under control of some of the backers of CoinDesk & BlockChain.info, because these 2 service are the top priority on this account.
