Short texts, due to their nature which makes them full of abbreviations and new coined acronyms, are not easy to classify. Text enrichment is emerging in the literature as a potentially useful tool. This paper is a part of a longer term research that aims at understanding the effectiveness of tweet enrichment by means of news, instead of the whole web as a knowledge source. Since the choice of a news collection may contribute to produce very different outcomes in the enrichment process, we compare the impact of three features of such collections: volume, variety, and freshness. We show that all three features have a significant impact on categorization accuracy. Copyright \ua9 2016 for the individual papers by the paper's authors
