    Oh Trevor, just who is handling the social media account for The Daily Show?

    T-No is not exactly a stranger to social media controversy, given that his announcement as the show’s host was met with an immediate backlash based on tweets he had sent in the past.

    You know, THESE ones.

    This time around it was a tweet referencing the landmark Supreme Court ruling in Texas regarding abortion, one that will hopefully see women able to take back control of their bodies from conservative male lawmakers stuck in the 1880s.

    Here’s the tweet in question:

    So I get what they were trying to say, but someone has been a little clumsy and short-sighted. A tiny smidgen of the inevitable backlash:

    dailyshowteeetfail2

    dailyshowteeetfail3

    After some time to think about what they’d done, the folks at The Daily Show came back with this:

    dailyshowteeetfail4

    Which saw the second wave of criticism:

    dailyshowteeetfail456

    dailyshowteeetfail4567

    dailyshowteeetfail45678

    By now we know that no matter how good your intentions, clumsily worded tweets will always be savaged by social media justice seekers.

    This concludes Epsiode 3 487 of ‘Think Before You Social Media’.
