Vitter's Tweet Delete Heat By now, we're used to Sen. David Vitter being at the center of controversy involving the opposite sex and social media. But this time, it involves both. After a textless Tweet he sent to a 20-year-old New Orleans woman was deleted (but preserved here), questions started to swirl, and in the meantime Gawker dug up a string of deleted Tweets from the woman, Daysha Scott, that seemed to suggest she had some dirt.
Vitter's spokesman told Huffington Post the who thing was the mistake of a staffer who probably hit the wrong button. Whether or not that's true, the mess also revealed that those David Vitter tweets aren't even from him.
Vitter "never personally tweets -- in fact, he doesn't even have the Twitter account set up on his Blackberry," Joel DiGrado told HuffPo. |
