Secret Service Official Twitter Account Bashes Fox NewsIt's almost too good to be true, but the tweet above apparently briefly appeared on the official Secret Service Twitter account.

It was promptly deleted, but not before dozens of people retweeted it, including Time political reporter Amy Sullivan. This screenshot appeared on the Tumblr of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Was it an errant direct message? An employee who forgot to log into their personal account? A hacker? Either way, the Secret Service's very brief foray into social media has already proven much more entertaining than hundreds of tweets from the Taliban.
