This finally proves that we are dealing with a legitimate form of media

There was a time when I thought that Twitter was one of the most insipid societal fads to come down the pipeline in my lifetime. Then CNN set me straight. It’s not insipid. It’s main stream. It’s cool. We know this because Ashton Kutcher, Puff Daddy and Oprah say so.
You see, Ashton and CNN were in a heated race to be the first to have 1 million subscribers to their Twitter channel. You may think that it was done in good humour, but no, this was serious business. I’m going to share some quotes from the superstar, Ashton himself. Wondering if these came from his twits? Don’t be silly. You have no room for complete sentences, much less fully formed thoughts that make sense. No sir, he went on “Larry King Live” to talk about this “battle”. He wanted to explain why this “duel” had to happen.
