NBC Gets Twitter To Suspend Reporter's Account




It appears that NBC (a.k.a. the National Barack Channel) has a thin skin when it comes to criticism of its coverage of the London Olympic games.

According to The Independent:


The US television broadcaster NBC was at the centre of controversy last night after it persuaded Twitter to suspend an Independent journalist who criticised its coverage of the Olympics.

Guy Adams, this newspaper's Los Angeles correspondent, was removed from the social networking site on the day that he wrote a news story detailing widespread public complaints about the network's coverage of the London Games.

Twitter says that the suspension of Adams's account was due to his posting of an NBC executive's corporate email address. This is a lame reason as the email address is easily obtainable via Google.
