no you goober. people who care about their reputation as journalists tweet responsibly, and joe blows like this guy tweet like idiots on message boards that posted fake stories. twitter didn't do it. But idiots like this get attention and retweets and front offices feel obligated to address them. I dont see the Cubs FO issuing statements denying Back2Banks’ latest three way trade idea. Twitter sucks for allowing nazis and abusive misogynists to run rampant, but it didn't invent [expletive] sports free agent rumors gaining traction.
