If it's a few random ones, here and there, I don't think it's a big deal. I'm not a fan of when big media figures (there are a few I can name) delete their tweets every month. Kind of is a bad look for accountability/transparency.

I am of the opinion no, but people of good faith disagree. A number of Left Journos do it but I think it’s particularly embarrassing behavior for a journalist.

Regardless, tweeting as if you *won’t* delete seems the wisest course for journalists.

100% I always appreciate pols who refuse to go off the record for the same reason; that it all counts however you structure things to pretend otherwise

A fan! I love how this tweet, out of context, would be a model of the phenomenon you're describing in it.
