The ony reason it has legs past the appology by TSN is Phaneuf/Cuthbert/Lupul IMO.

TSN apologized yesterday. Please show me what Phaneuf/Cuthberth/Lupul have done in the past 20 hours to cause the story to continue.

They are the reason this is getting traction and has legs past the 1 day. If they would have not launched legal action most people would have dismissed the tweet. Instead they probably have a bunch of people now online looking for rumors.

See above, the Tweet had already been sent all over the place, so this was objectively false even before they lawyered it. In fact, it is specifically because this is false that they lawyered up.
