when twitter goes wrong

Yesterday we saw a classic case of social networking causing an artist to act against their better judgement. In an entertaining case of mistaken identity Fabolous started sending out hostile posts about T-Pain after "anti-fab" tweets were made from a fake T-pain twitter account. As an active member of the twitter community I was able to watch all of this transpire first hand. Luckily, before too much collaboration preventing damage was done, Fabolous realized that the belligerent tweets came from a fake account. After which he proceeded to rescind his previous statements.
Interestingly enough only two days before T-pain actually did diss another New York based artist, rapper Jay Z. Footage of that Fiasco can be seen here

At the end of the day, the burning question still remains. "Can't we all just get along?"
