TV news is doing everything they think can to stay relevant. Pathetic. There's nothing more cringe-worthy than watching talking heads read out tweets live on air. Sidebar Twitter feeds are off-putting and pointless.

Hilarious that they let that Phaneuf/Lupul junk slip through the censors though. Maybe it'll lead to the end of the practice.
