Tweets/Facebook Sightings

jelle wrote:I have gotten lost in the discussion

Is the point of the discussion that perhaps the tweets do not show that JP was at the LAX airport and that Ben might not have been in SF?
Thus, Ben could have been in LA with Ashley?

Is that right?

It was in response to a post that said they were sure there was no twitter campaign of misinformation by MF. I pointed out a commonality in the twiitter timelines (RELEVANTmag) of the JP sighting tweeter and the Ben sighting tweeter. My point was that it was another "coincidence" that gave be pause to think that MF might just have his hand in this to mislead. Nothing definitive...just another fishy thing that I noticed and wanted to bring to the board's attention.

Isn't that north of San Fran

Between Sonoma & San Francisco - closer to SF.

Here's her twitter handle and I read all the way back to January, seems very legit. I would never take a picture of anyone I didn't know. But I assume she didn't have the nerve to ask Ben for a picture and the manners to not sneak a picture without permision? Or she was with her boyfriend and thought better than to take a picture of a guy from the Bachelorette. :giggle:

I am not sure if I am the only one but I would never take a picture and furthermore post it on the web.

There is a limit in my book between what I see on TV, have fun on a forum AND respect a human being in real world.

So it is not a lethal proof that if she did not take a picture, she must be lying......

Took a break for dinner and it looks like there is still little direct news. Does this mean Reality Dweeb has not yet acquiesced to descend from whatever mountaintop he inhabits these days to Tweet some info?

LOL... . I know this is bordering on paranoia and you may call the white van for me now.....but this tweeter is marketing director for a wine company. I know he's probably legit but just wanted to point this info out :hidingchair .

I'm taking a break now I think I need some meds.......

I agree. My brother worked for an airport refueling private jets. A lot of celebs came through and never once did he try to take a picture. Actually he would never even say they were there till after they had left. We live in a fairly small city, so it was always big news to hear who had come through.

I live in DC, and the only time I know that I'm crossing paths with someone important is when I see tourists snapping pics of them. I'm jaded and used to just keeping my head down and going about my business, so I usually don't care who is eating next to me or riding the Metro with me. But many people do cross that boundary.

That said, I don't really think it's an elaborate misdirection campaign and I personally don't think the RELEVANT magazine RT is a red flag. I do think it's weird that she didn't snap a pic though. But maybe it just stands out to me because this is the only tweet that doesn't have a pic attached and it looks like 'which one of these things doesn't look like the rest'. JMO.

i know it's just a short flight to LA but don't you think he should be on his way to LA for tomorrow's taping? Watch that'll be the next tweet..... :hidingchair

I don't know whether people hound twitter sightings to feed the tabs or write blogs about them outside of forums like this.... I think a majority of us here are wayy beyond the regular person in terms of knowledge about the show ...and I don't think MF "planting" tweets would really impact anything in the larger scale outside of forums like this so -- I don't really see the motivation to even do these kind of 'misinformation' campaigns with 1 out of millions of tweets mentioning a sighting-- the incentive for tptb doesn't really click for me
