TwitterTwatter

Since when did Twitter become such a reliable and credible source? It seems as if you cant get away from tweets these days. I was reading an article on CNN today regarding the death of a reality tv star's finance. Towards the end of the article, CNN posted the tweets from the grieving wife....verbatim. This is not an isolated incident. I have come across plenty of news articles written in their standard news article format and in the midst somewhere is bad twitter twatter. "OMG so tired2day." "OMgmbd" "need 2 get the word 2 my fanz". You name it, it has been seen in an article somewhere. And probably with out the use of a space bar......
