Please help to improve the following sentence
I am writing the following:

The length of a standard microblog message approximately equals to the
length of a typical newspaper headline and subheading, which makes
microblogs a perfect medium to facilitate the produce and consume of
news articles.

I find it lengthy (> 30 words), and "to the length of a typical...", where the word "length" appeared before "the length of ....", is there any way to reduce the sentence to make it more readable ?

The length of a standard microblog message IS approximately THE SAME AS THAT of a typical newspaper headline and subheading, which makes microblogs a perfect medium to facilitate the producTION and consumPTION of news articles.

I would also suggest the claim of a "perfect medium" is a little extravagant and "to facilitate" is unnecessary verbiage. Perhaps "... an ideal medium for the production and ..." would be neater.
