Are you sure about that? That seems like something that Forbes would cover in their terms of service/contract or whatever for their contributors. |
I guess it depends entirely upon who has access/authority over the Twitter account. The article has nothing to do with this conversation by the way, it was the tweet...not the article that was clearly wrong. Also, Forbes can't just absolve themselves of responsibility via contract, at least, it would absolutely have to withstand a legal challenge, and I'm not sure a situation like that has arisen yet. But, there's plenty of reason to assume there's at least a fair chance of success in court. Holding a parent company responsible in a lawsuit absolutely has occurred in the past.
