Yeah editing a tweet by a beat reporter followed by 2500 people is surely a top priority.

Sure. You can believe "a massive heretofore undisclosed conspiracy requiring Twitter to micromanage the feeds of every single beat reporter for every single newspaper and bail them out for embarrassing Tweets" is more likely than "some troll edited a screenshot." I'm not here to bash anyone's religion.
What is this bag of bullshite
You act like twitter cant change a word in a tweet
you are a weird dude

I'm with Iosh on this one. Twitter would have had to catch, then edit, the tweet within minutes of it being posted or she would have had to delete then repost it within the same minute.
Where did you get the screen capture of the tweet in question? Did you take it yourself or did you find it somewhere else?

Yes I'm sure they have a program set up to make beat reporters not look racist.

easy way to find out, make a twitter account and attempt to tweet the same thing to the same person. See if it gets changed

well, let's have twitter execs tell you in real time how they do it...they told Congress too you fricking imbecile.
Twitter calls it "bad user expereinces" lolololol
you dont think they censor out things using algorithms? seriously? How do you think they know which gay porn ads to show you?

It's not massive and it's probably not undisclosed.
How many Facebook type revelations of controlling content do we need before people realize that certain political affiliations are in the power structure of social media and use it to opinion.
Like people haven't been censored or banned for pro-right facebooks posts or tweets.

“That’s something we’re thinking about all the time,” responded Twitter General Counsel Sean Edgett.
“It’s a bad user experience. And we don’t want to be known as a platform for that.”

Yeah, a kid, the reporter an adult. I think I was fair.

No, I think you got downvoted for saying thanks to Iosh. At least that's why I downvoted your post.

The timing of everything is what makes it suspicious. It looks like she didn't start getting blasted about it until a couple of hours after her tweet.
I suspect someone got pissed about her generally blasting every kid who posted on Twitter about this.
