Virgin Airlines Apologizes After Twitter Account Tells Kanye to ‘Eat a Dick’

Virgin Australia profusely apologized today after an, um, interesting message was posted to its Twitter account.

In case you’re not on Twitter or just don’t follow musicians’ Twitter ramblings, Kanye West has been going on various tweetstorms about his genius and money in the past week, and at one point as he ranted about public reaction to his new album, this was posted to Virgin Australia’s Twitter account:

“EAD” is shorthand for “eat a dick.”

That was quickly deleted from the Virgin Australia Twitter account and they apologized:

A recent tweet on our account was not published by a Virgin Australia employee and we are investigating the matter.

2/2 We apologise for any offence caused.

Brace yourselves for West’s Twitter response rant and/or diss track…
