This just in, old man wants news to not be redundant!
Maybe they're repeating it to make sure their illiterate viewers (or maybe people who are listening to the news in the background while they do other things) know what they are showing on the screen?
I would say this is not really a "twitter" thing. Any time the news has something written that they display on the screen they read it out, I think usually in the entirety.
This jsut has been happening more and more because the orange menace likes to make official presidential statements via twitter 2 -3 times a day.
