Hacker tweets Lohan nonsense, SDNN editor commiserates

Here’s a perfect example of social media gone wrong.

The father of troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan claims his Twitter account was hacked when his account released the following tweet: “…the truth about my daughter living with HIV for the rest of her life as a result of the decisions she made…”

The hacker (if what her father, Michael Lohan, is saying is true) also released tweets about Lindsay hooking up with music hotshot Tommy Mottola when she was 17.

According to TMZ.com, Michael has already contacted his lawyer (if his account was really hacked).

I can totally feel for Michael (if what he claims is true) as my Twitter account was hacked months ago, too. In fact, I’d be willing to back up Michael’s case.

Anyway, without getting into the politics of the tweet as I have real news to cover, let’s hope the jerk who hacked into the account is found (if his account was, in fact, hacked) and others leave the B-list star alone.

Hoa Quach is the political editor for the San Diego News Network and she just learned Lindsay is no longer in her teens…. like seriously, when did that happen?
