I would retweet from wikipedia. The ED is a big news item in my
opinion,
very different from WMF programs.
The news item is "Liz Gannes is now chatting with the Executive
Director of Wikimedia, Lila Tretikov at CodeMobile". Not exactly
earth-shattering in my opinion (many people won't actually know the
journalist or even the conference Gannes, and the tweet doesn't even
indicate what Lila said - that information could be much more
relevant; indeed while writing this I just noticed that Michael found
a link to the actual interview and drafted SM for it; I would focus on
that for @wikipedia). True, @wikimedia has seen stuff that's even more
inside baseball, which is probably what you are referring to. And
obviously we have put out quite a few items about/from Lila via
@wikipedia too in the past, when it was newsworthy.
All that said, I won't be too upset if we retweet the photo from
@wikipedia - it just doesn't help the conceptual distinction between
the two accounts.
