Best Buy has apologized for the tweet in the above screenshot, which made a joke in reference to the hit podcast “Serial.” The tweet has been deleted, but not before it racked up over a thousand retweets.
We deeply apologize for our earlier tweet about Serial. It lacked good judgment and doesn’t reflect the values of our company. We are sorry.
