Why Twitter Disclaimers Like 'Views Are My Own' Won't Save Your Job

Forbes: Miller, whose profile is now private, originally got off lucky. Offended Twitter users quickly called for his job, but by the next day, NYU considered Miller’s regret sufficient, his job still in place and the case closed. Now, they’re taking another look, as is the University of New Mexico, where Miller also teaches. Don’t think his backpedaling will help him out, however. Whether your bio warns that “views are my own” or that “RTs aren’t endorsements,” Twitter disclaimers won’t save you when questionable social media use gets you in hot water at work.
