Created based on https://twittercommunity.com/t/how-to-get-tags-of-a-media-in-a-tweet/185614/3

Sometimes Twitter users don't feature handles in the text, but rather tag the attached media with handles. There wasn't a way to access those handles via API with v1.1, and unfortunately it seems there isn't a way still with v2. This is very important relational information which can help many use-cases.

Example: college athletes prospects traditionally announce their commitment to a college via Twitter. The announcements are often cryptic and only contain terse text such as "1000% committed" and similar. It's a great helping hand when they bother tagging the handle of the college program or college football team on the attached media. This helps identifying which college program they were committed to.

It'd be even better if the AI based entity extraction was more accessible / better, but I don't ask for that. Just for exposing this relation data of the tagging.
