@Susan_Hennessey So the point is NOT that people crowdsourced. It's that media magnified it in totally irresponsible ways.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Irresponsible media made a bad thing worse. NYPost is despicable. But Reddit/4chan "investigation" threads idependantly harmful.3 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@Susan_Hennessey I mean I know it's fashionable--has been for 10 years--to blame citizen stuff for media mistakes. Usu poorly thought out.2 replies 0 retweets 0 likes -

@emptywheel Sorry, trying to keep up in 140. Not my theory, quoted LE theory. See my original tweet distinction b/w citizen journalist/cop.1 reply 0 retweets 0 likes
@Susan_Hennessey Your interpretation relies on a theory of influence (and ignoring many details of WaPo story) that you're not describing.
