What on earth does Bush running a company have to do with your article about twitter's advertising practices?
This is the laziest form of writing I can think of and it makes you look juvenile. I have trouble taking anything you say seriously after that sort of nonsense, and I'd suspect that a big chunk of your readers are the same.

Okay, you didn't tweet the sun, but you linked to a picture of somebody else who did. I'm sorry I don't know who you are well enough to recognize that handle as not yours.
This is a serious question: how would twitter know what you're interested in? It's not a computational linguistics engine, it's a datastore. Explain to me how you would draw these connections if you had access to all of twitters data.
May I politely suggest you read the article. I am suggesting that Twitter is being run by MBAs and that (some) MBAs are as useless as French Windows on a submarine.
I don't know where you get the impression that I linked to someone who did tweet The Sun. I linked to a screenshot I had taken.
Finally, Twitter is selling itself to advertisers as knowing about its users. If it doesn't, it better get to some of the fancier universities around the world and snap up the computational linguistic majors.
Just as "(some) MBAs are as useless as French Windows on a submarine", so are (some) programmers, and (some) doctors, and (some) <insert profession here>. Did you think that bashing on people with an MBA degree was going to lend credibility to your opinion?
Yes, clearly because I disagree with your premise I haven't read your article. Somehow I magically knew what it was about enough to engage you in a conversation...about an article I didn't read.
>I am suggesting that Twitter is being run by MBAs and that (some) MBAs are [...] useless
Then say that. The pointless jab is just that: pointless.
