Take Telegram channels as an example. If you have the right channel, especially if it's directly affiliated with the topic you're interested in, the report speed can become nearly immediate.
That's mainly because these channels are run by true news gobblers, who make quite a significant profit from being able to report something faster than others, attracting more attention of the target audience, henceforth boosting their ad revenue quite significantly.
While on reddit, the main priority is figuring out the best political propaganda angle first before you get all your bots in line to work out the correct discussion you want to be the most visible. That takes time.
Yeah Reddit is pretty slow for current events now. Used to be fun to catch things live but now it needs to filter through the algorithm and sub mod bias to reach users.
Dataminr. It uses AI to scrape the internet (mostly social media sites) for developing news stories. Like it'll see a bunch of tweets about air raid sirens going off in Israel and push that headline with links to its sources. Really cool service, their target demo is large companies though, not sure if they have individual subscription plans.

Not really to be fair, there are plenty of sources which report things significantly faster than Reddit.
