Girl dies while tweeting in bathtub..or was she?

Gizmodo - Girl Dies by Electrocution While Twitting in Bathtub, Apocalypse Draws Nearer - Girl Dies Twitter Bathtub

There is an intersting thing about this article I would like to point out..if you read the actual article here there is no mention of twitter..only a screenshot of the site which could just stand as a computer shot rather than saying that she was tweeting.

All I'm saying is a news source like Gizmodo should watch if indeed they did make this mistake.
