RUSH: I was gonna talk about the Olympics, but I don\u2019t want MSNBC getting any Twitter account canceled. Did you hear about this? Guy Adams works as a writer for the Independent. It\u2019s a UK newspaper. He lives in LA. And throughout the Olympics he\u2019s gone to Twitter and he has been ripping NBC repeatedly for its coverage. And everybody, it seems, is ripping NBC. NBC\u2019s laughing all the way to the bank because their ratings are through the roof. You can\u2019t miss, with communications what it is today, you cannot miss running into the results that NBC won\u2019t show you until later on in primetime. People who are trying to avoid the results get pop-ups when they go to cooking sites on the Internet. A little pop up will come up and tell them what happened to Phelps, what happened to an American gymnast, the little ChiCom swimmer that everybody thinks is doping now. And now the ChiCom guy has come back, “Oh, yeah, well, we think Phelps was doping and was drugged up four years ago. So take that.” <\/p>\n
So what do you think NBC is gonna do? Change? They\u2019re getting the best of both worlds. However, all this criticism is all over the place, and this guy, Guy Adams, who writes for the Independent, went to Twitter and ripped NBC for all this, and he specifically criticized NBC\u2019s reliance on tape delay. And now he doesn\u2019t have a Twitter account, because he tweeted the public e-mail address of an NBC executive, and Twitter rules specify that you can\u2019t do that. You can\u2019t tweet private information about people. You can\u2019t put their address up there. You can\u2019t put their e-mail address. You can\u2019t put their phone number. Well, this guy tweeted the publicly listed Web address, e-mail address for the NBC exec. <\/p>\n

<\/a>So somebody, it is theorized, called Twitter from NBC and Guy Adams had his Twitter account just canceled. Now, does the name Spike Lee mean anything to you? Spike Lee tweeted the home address of George Zimmerman. It turned out to be the incorrect address, but he still did it. And his Twitter account wasn\u2019t canceled. But Guy Adams\u2019 Twitter account was. Do you think Spike Lee knows Ice-T? Do you think Spike Lee and Ice-T are buddies? That\u2019s a pretty good bet, right? So if you\u2019re a racist movie director who tweets the incorrect home address of George Zimmerman, an action that results in death threats, you get to keep your Twitter account. If you are a journalist criticizing NBC\u2019s Olympics coverage and you tweet the public e-mail address of an NBC executive, Twitter kills your account. <\/p>\n
