This is kind of interesting….
Secret Service Employee Accidentally Tweets About ‘Blathering’ While ‘Monitoring’ Fox News


An employee of the U.S. Secret Service accidentally sent out a tweet on the official Secret Service twitter account this week saying that he or she “had to monitor Fox for a story. Can’t. Deal. With. The. Blathering.”

The tweet was almost immediately taken down, but not before some quick-acting bloggers copied it.
….
Asked why the employee was monitoring Fox News Channel, Donovan said, “Our public affairs employees monitor all the news channels throughout the day for stories that effect the Secret Service.”

Asked which story this employee was focused on, Donovan said “I don’t know.”


I kind of doubt the Secret Service monitors news networks on a regular basis. I wonder what they were looking for. Maybe they were checking the comments section of the website for death threats. Maybe keeping an eye on what Beck may be inciting.
