There go those “3rd-party” journalists again trying to get into Michelle Obama’s head. Well, the First Lady isn’t having it, and neither are some determined tweeters who have made their home on Twitter. The latest journo to feel the wrath of the Obamas’ invisible online warriors is MSNBC’s news analyst Jonathan Alter, a pundit who’s come out in support of Jodi Kantor’s recently released book “The Obamas.” With each day’s revelations, the “biography” appears to be a work of fiction, falsely alleging serious tensions in the Obama White House and painting Mrs. Obama as an “Angry Black Woman.”1 623
Ironically, news analyst Alter has come to the defense of Ms. Kantor, claiming her book is positive and suggesting that Mrs. Obama ought to get used to that idea and feel good about it. Alter further argues that the First Lady “shouldn’t trash a book she hasn’t read.” Meanwhile, it seems Alter feels its okay that Kantor subliminally trashes the Obamas. But a determined posse of tweeters is lashing back at Alter arguing that the Obamas -- specifically Michelle -- were trashed first, and by a “journalist” who boldly and carelessly wrote an unauthorized biography filled with lies and innuendos after interviewing the couple for only a mere 24 minutes in 2009.
The play-by-play action in this Chirpstory script features an adamant journalist--Jonathan Alter--who seems unwilling to back away from his words but who finds himself on the defensive end of his own tweets. Meanwhile , a group of determined tweeters are now getting into Alter’s head and turning the journalist’s own words against him. Now who’s the real wordsmith here: the journalist or the tweeters? You be the judge.

It hasn't been a full week yet, but First Lady Michelle Obama's numbers are going through the roof -- no, not her polls numbers but her Twitter numbers.3 924
The First Lady emerged last week as a powerhouse in the World of Twitter, closing in on 350,000 followers by mid-day today -- just five days after the Obama 2012 campaign staff announced her official debut on Twitter. That's an average of 70,000 new followers a day since last Thursday!
Signing as "-mo" under the handle @michelleobama, the First Lady has sent out four tweets since her first day online. Her first two tweets included thanking the thousands of tweeters who welcomed her to Twitter and another asking for their participation in MLK Day of Service which was observed today.
Announcement of the First Lady's tweets last Thursday prompted a surge of responses on Twitter from a diverse mix of commenters, ranging from little-known bloggers to star-studded celebrities to attention-seeking pundits, even a few of the crazies. The First Lady also reached her long, slender arms across the border and across foreign waters, picking up a number of new followers -- including such tweeters as a "hairstylist/professional weaver from London," a "project manager in Latin America," and a "law-n-biz skool student from smalltown Ontario."
By the day's end last Thursday, Mrs. Obama had garnered close to a quarter of a million followers--a number that utlimately moved her past one of her husband's chief political rivals, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney. To date, Romney has 262,916 followers--almost a hundred thousand followers shy of the 349,026 followers and counting that Mrs. Obama had gained by the end of Monday, MLK Day.
Of course, the First Lady who insists she has no intentions of ever being a politician or a celebrity has quite a ways to go to compete with her husband's Twitter numbers. To date, President Obama has 11,957,135 Twitter followers. With close to 12 million followers, the President surpasses all his political opponents combined and remains on the Top Ten list of the most followed people in the world on Twitter.
On her debut, Michelle Obama clearly out classed an author whose name shall not be mentioned who recently appeared on Twitter promoting her controversial biography of the Obamas. The journalist who recently turned book author drew tremendous pushback on Twitter during the week for questionable and unsubstantiated details included in the book. Meanwhile, in a three-part, wide-ranging interview with "CBS This Morning," Mrs. Obama graciously refuted some of the excerpts from the book as untruths and exaggerations.
Here's a summary of the responses from Twitter commenters who were among the first to put out the welcome mat for their beloved "Michelle" on lastThursday. Although Mrs. Obama received thousands of tweets over the course of the week, only those tweets using the phrase "welcome @michelle obama" are included in this story. Comments from her fans and supporters grew by the hundreds of thousands throughout the day and the remainder of the week.
