I would expect minute-by-minute coverage with a lot of pictures, maps, estimates of how much time they need to reach Moscow etc.

This existed, it just didn't exist in the traditional media. Look in the right discord servers and there were new videos being posted every 5 minutes as the convoy was moving around.

I do work with many types of sources - a habit developed in times when I was doing this professionally for some state actors. The coverage in social media made the impression of continuous data stream, but information density was really low if you filter it.
telegram also had a lot of min by min posts I spent way too late last night watching
