The Atlantic has a Twitter for both the normal publishing from The Atlantic and for The Atlantic News. This twitter allows them to expand their audience to a whole new global perspective. It helps them to reach their targeted audience better because the age group they seems to aim their news at is highly active on social medias such as Twitter. They mainly tweet articles which with directly link you to their site which help bring traffic in onto their actual website. The headlines they tweet often have to do with Trump and his most recent mess, social issues (police brutality, LGBTQ+, etc.) or environmental issues. Which helps to appeal to their slight bias to the left even more because they are either going to have people who like the headlines come to read more or people who are upset by the headline come to see what exactly they are talking about. Either way it gets them more web traffic and people reading their spreads an columns.
