Twitter wars between Rick Scott's office and the media

Presshed 
Okay, let's admit it up front - one of the reasons this is mighty fine story is because it quotes Crowley Political Report.

Stop booing, you should read the story anyway. Brendan Farrington, a top notch political writer for the Associated Press Tallahassee Bureau takes an interesting look at how Twitter has become the new way for Florida Gov. Rick Scott's communications director, Brian Burgess, to debate issues with the Florida press corps.

Crowley Political Report has talked about this issue in the past and you can find an example of the Twitter wars here.

Farrington takes a fresh look and also tells us what is happening in other state capitals around the country. Read his story here.

And now the editor of Sunshine State News is Scott's Communications Director or something, right? Hilarious
