How all official media were beat out by Twitter on the 1st of May 2011.

World's # 1 Terrorist Osama bin Laden annonced dead by President Obama on the May 1st exact the same day when Germany annonced Adolf Hitler dead in 1945.

Who broke the news while Mr. President was writing his adress to the nation himself in the White House? Before all other official media did confirm that bin Laden is dead Keith Urbahn, the chief of staff for the former defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld, wrote just one particular tweet that broke the news, “So I’m told by a reputable person they have killed Osama Bin Laden. Hot damn.”

Chronology is HERE.

HERE see twiter user live blogged about raid on bin Laden without knowing what it was.

 66 years ago the media brought the news of Hitler's death on the next  after the event. Today Twitter beat out all official sources of information by spreading the news like wildfire through all of us.
