Vulgar tweet sent to ST followers by mistake: "straitstimes.com staff mixed up his personal and corporate accounts"
A VULGAR message was accidentally sent out on the corporate Twitter account of The Straits Times yesterday.
The message, sent out at 12.15pm to more than 46,000 followers of @STcom on the social networking site, read: 'omg. f... you all. seriously.'
It was deleted within seconds.
Upon being alerted, Straits Times social media editor Ng Tze Yong immediately posted a tweet apologising on behalf of the staff member who had committed the blunder.
But the tweet had already gone viral within minutes, with hundreds of Twitter users re-posting the message.
The reactions were mostly of amusement, with some expressing sympathy
