The second is how a poor girl lost her waitress job after twittering about an actor who stiffed her. So now a person is getting fired for telling the truth….check out the story at: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/10/06/jane-adams-waiter-jon-bar_n_310783.html?page=2&show_comment_id=32354015#comment_32354015

Look out the social Laurence Fishburne may be hiding around your next tweet.
