My Short Comment on Courtroom Tweeting
The Alaska Dispatch news site has quoted me in an article on an Alaska judge who expressed displeasure over two tweets sent by a television reporter covering a prominent murder trial. Since the article's about tweets, which are limited to 140 characters, it's appropriate that my comment in the article (with spaces) is 141 characters long. Guess I should have dropped the period.

Social media are abuzz about a English Premier League footballer ("soccer player" to us Yanks) Ryan Giggs, who has obtained an order from a British court requiring Twitter to reveal the identity of various tweeters who identified him as having had an affair with model and Big Brother contestant Imogen Thomas.
