Gillian McKeith has managed to embark on a spectacular failure with Twitter. Firstly, she has a go at a random twitterer who had a go at her, then she pretends that her Twitter account doesn’t actually belong to her. Following that, she tries to remove all record of her social networks on her website. However, a brilliantly lazy web designer just commented out the code, so it was there for anyone who has the ability to right-click then select “view source”. Now, it’s exploded all over Twitter and Gillian McKeith is once again looking like a total arse.
That, and the diploma mill she went to corresponded with has announced it will shut down. Happy days.
Plenty of people have written excellent blogs about this:


Saw Ben Goldacre commenting upon this on Twitter this afternoon – Resultus Maximus!
I just wished I’d been on Twitter at the time to see it all kicking off!
