Let me say it again, Twitter was hacked by undead usama. The hacked into Meg's thread. This is not conjecture, i did a screen capture of the entire thing, forget about Fox, forget about Obama. There were 3 or 4 screens designed to reveal themselves then disappear. The first one i encountered was usama claiming he was not dead, he would never die,
Next he had been talking to Obama, and my favorite, his body had washed ashore in Yemen and he was busy raising a zombie army.
I have the screen capture of the twitter hack if anyone is interested, or you can go to twitter and seek out undead usama. It too is rigged to come and go.

The person posting this thread remembers seeing it on that day and posting the tweet on that day, so if in fact something in that code you're attempting to post shows that Twitter was hacked, there would be two possibilities.
1. This OP may not be the same person who owns the Twitter page, someone hacked that page and made that post, and then made the same name here in ATS, and posted this thread. In this case the real megneverlands would have been victimized.
2. She herself hacked her own page it and came here to post this thread. In this case there would be no victim.
This has been a possibility since the first post. Many are giving it the benefit of the doubt, to varying degrees.

well, in the 2nd scenario there would be victims. You, I, and the rest of ATS and others who spent any amount of time on this would be the victims.
I think that what is being shown, however, is that it was hacked and she was victimized more recently. As in the hacking began when her story began picking up speed yesterday/today sometime

It doesn't matter whether the OP misread the ticker or not (I don't believe they did personally) because we have Fox News staff tweeting that he died a week earlier... there are several screenshots of other Twitter members saying the same thing.
The point is it seems to be general knowledge among news agencies that he died either a few days or weeks before President Obama announced it.
So WHY would the president LIE about the date?
Do you not see.... It doesn't matter?
There is a massive discrepancy, these tweets and the other things like the report Ashley D found, just help to confirm that it was being reported he died before the "Official" date...
Shame all that was on the news was the royal wedding...
People said to keep an eye out for something going down that day.....
Hmmmm

I'm not a victim. I chose to play knowing full well this could be a scam.
And I agree she (the real Twittter meg) might now be a target as a result of this thread, whether she's the same person posting here under the same meg name as the Twitter name or not..

Right. That's a mismatch according to you guys who think you have the timestamp thing nailed.
I'm still not warm and fuzzy with that.
She said she was, on Twitter, set to US and no particular time zone. I don't know what the implications of this are, as it doesn't seem possible. We need an answer for this.

I just checked the timestamp for myself and you are correct. I suppose I did post it later than I had thought. Which could mean two things now... I either saw the ticker later than I thought, around 10:43pm PST on April 28th (1:43am on the 29th EST), instead of between 6:30pm and 8pm, or I just posted it later and saw it earlier that evening. I wish I could remember the exact time I SAW the ticker! I was busy packing, worrying about my cousin, doing laundry and whatnot, and then getting ready for a royal wedding party for late that night / early morning of the 29th. It's a big hard for me to remember over a week later. Sorry that I'm not precise on the time. If it's any consolation, I'm overly confident of what I saw/read!
Hope this clears up the time issue.

Wouldn't she have just said that though? When we asked her around what time she saw it, she could have easily said "well, it was at the same time I posted the tweet, or right before it". Why would she give us a one and a half hour window for that evening?

On her twitter, she posted this on May 2nd:
Yep. RT @dantaylorjr Both @jeremyscahill & @megneverlands reported on 4/28 Fox News had a ticker reporting OBL was dead. #binladen
She's saying that this person "jeremyscahill" also saw the ticker and reported it on twitter, but I checked his twitter several times and didn't see it. So either she saw it wrong, made it up, or that guy deleted the tweet (is that possible?).

The Fox News ticker is saying Osama bin Laden is dead. No breaking news & no other channels reporting. How odd.

I went to megneverlands thread to verify that indeed it did have a 4-28 timestamp. I posted that i had verified the date, I returned to twitter to read the posts, looking for discreptancies.,I clicked on the post to get a larger image, the one posted above, it was different then the original, i saved it then began to pursue undead usama via his picture. It lead me to a twitter page belonging to undead usama. it had three pictures of usama and a link to megneverland.
i didn't check out rsalien or the others notified twitter security they were being hacked, returned to ats to alert you to what i had found.

No confirmation from any other sources including fox News itself, I've scanned through virtually all their news feed headlines and ticker headlines, and nothing to the effect "OBL is dead" from April 28. Sorry OP I think you simply misread a ticker headline and tweeted about it without fully reading what the headline was about.
I believe Mikey84 has made the best assesment of this topic, and the ticker headlines were about the "nuclear hellstorm" AQ was threatening to unleash if OBL was killed. It's similar to my earlier assesment that it's a case of the headline reading "IF Osama bin Laden was killed" versus "Osama bin Laden was killed".
It would have been easier to say Fox News made a mistake in their ticker headlines, as they so often do, I just don't see that as the answer to your topic as surely there would have been ATS posters here on April 28 talking about it, or other Twitter users writing about it. Instead all we got was nothing... Of course Fox News also reported that “President Obama Is In Fact Dead”, which didn't garner much talk either. I think most people have simply stopped taking Fox News seriously from all their past biased or wrong headlines.

OSAMA BIN LADEN CELEBRATION IN PAKISTAN ... UPLOADED TO YOUTUBE April 28
Actually ~Lucidity this video is from May 1st. It's embedded in the video; ignore the upload date, because the video itself clearly states "May 1" in the streaming date (use something like grease monkey to view it. Copy the title "OSAMA BIN LADEN CELEBRATION IN PAKISTAN" and search it within YouTube and you'll also see how long ago the video was uploaded - I searched it on Sunday May 08 and 3:30 AM EST and it states the video was uploaded "1 week ago" which matches the video date of having been uploaded May 1st. Someone's screwing with YouTube. Looking more like some real dis-info agents are attempting to get in on this "OBL died before May 1" conspiracy bandwagon...
Here's the search result for that video showing it was only uploaded one week ago (making it May 1st)

Edit to add:
Meg; question for you is: You wrote "OSAMA" regarding the Fox News headline, but Fox only ever uses the spelling "USAMA". If you were tweeting about this supposed headline you saw, why didn't you write it the way Fox spells it - Usama?edit on 8-5-2011 by Blackmarketeer because: (no reason given)

I think my assessment that Twitter megneverlands and ATS megneverlands may not be the same person is still in the running too, no? Still an unanswered question or two there.
Well I hate to say it, but "doxing" Megneverlands twitter account shows me her real name, her state, and age (she's pretty young) and phone number. It could be confirmed that it is indeed her, but I don't want to cross any lines about contacting a member in this fashion.
