- SwellJoe 12y agoIt has been covered by USAToday, NBC News, etc. If it's not legit, it's a reasonably elaborate hoax. Though the source always seems to be the media company in question, I guess it's still actually up in the air. But, tweets have mentioned Glen Greenwald and others who would be among the most capable of debunking it, and most likely to do so, if it's fake. http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/chelsea-manning-joins-twitter-prison-n335461 http://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/chelsea-manning-joins-tw... http://news.yahoo.com/supporters-help-chelsea-manning-starts-tweeting-181100521.html http://news.yahoo.com/supporters-help-chelsea-manning-starts...
- xnull2guest 12y agoAgreed on all points. Compelling. Kind of a scandal: "US's largest leaker broadcasting from military prison". I wonder how long the Twitter access will last.
- dublinben 12y agoManning isn't using Twitter directly. An outside group is transcribing phone calls.
- glandium 12y agoWhich, really, is easy to fix: no more phone calls.
- pakled_engineer 12y agoMarc Emery did the same thing and BOP threw him in solitary for criticism on his blog that his wife transcribed for him. I imagine Manning's privs will disappear quickly now that this story is out.
