For the record, there was no PR involved in @DNA twitter account. Marketing team wasn’t involved either. It’s fully managed by journalists. Thanks for pointing out the irony, will change the bio. Thanks =)
PS: Those links are put in there manually. We are not a bot. We respond to user-inquiries unlike most traditional media orgs on twitter.

Does it make any difference if the links are put there manually or by a script? Both look exactly the same.
The only difference being that, you’ll answer queries, but wait … who will ask queries when all what you’ll have to offer are few chars with a link in the story? Only the people who started following you in the beginning know that @DNA is not a Bot and responds to queries.
