This article shows the top 5 celebrity tweets made about the democratic convention. They're so funny! http://thecelebritycafe.com/feature/2012/09/top-5-celebrity-tweets-about-democratic-national-convention
I suspect media types such as Brooke like Delany's tweets because they express what they feel without the threat of getting fired an hour later. Also, tweets read aloud...not funny.
