Oops of the Day, Part Deux

Yesterday, it was a CNN snafu. Today, Chrysler has apologized for a tweet that went out with the F-word.

Jalopnik has an image of the original tweet, which has since been deleted. It said: “I find it ironic that Detroit is known as the#motorcity and yet no one here knows how to fucking drive.” That is ironic!

A follow-up tweet from Chrysler says the company’s account was “compromised” and it  is “taking steps to resolve it.” According to Mashable, someone from the automaker’s social media firm was canned.
