Comments on: Record Exec Arrested For Not Tweeting To Stop Tweenage Riot http://www.mediaite.com/online/record-exec-arrested-for-not-tweeting-to-stop-tweenage-riot/ Mediaite Fri, 10 Feb 2012 21:27:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=2012.06 By: Magister http://www.mediaite.com/online/record-exec-arrested-for-not-tweeting-to-stop-tweenage-riot/#comment-10951 Magister Wed, 25 Nov 2009 04:08:15 +0000 http://www.mediaite.com/?p=49430#comment-10951 It's kind of ironic that I knock someone's thinking ability in such a poorly-written comment. IOW: The person was arrested, then the tweets were sent. And, there's a time-stamp difference between the AllthingsD images and the actual tweets.

They've posted a tweet saying go home, then one that was time-stamped three minutes later that said go home, they've already arrested "someone from my camp". Logically, the manager refused to send the tweet, so he was arrested and once that proved to whomever ended-up sending the tweets that the cops were serious, the requested tweets were posted. (Also, technically guy wasn't arrested for not sending the tweets. I'm guessing the non-tweet falls under the obstruction charge, but that's for the courts to figure out) What also struck me about the "AllThingsD" post was that the images of the two tweets are time-stamped 4:30 and 4:33pm, which the post text defines as "eastern", but if you click through to the singer's Twitter or ignore the images and click the status link, they are marked as 1:30 and 1:33pm on Twitter's site.

I try and restraint myself from hyperbole, but I can't help it this time. When people start rioting over someone like Justin Bieber, it becomes crystal clear that our society is long overdue for a massive, plague-like culling. Wow.
