This man is an imposter!

     Fake news, fake twitter, fake hair. This has been the political year of 2017 thus far. 

Organizations are now delegating (willingly or unwillingly) their twitter presences to outside sources to report on the actions taken by said organization. Why? Good question. Rising prices of marketing people? Still hung up on Facebook? 140 characters frustrated them? Who knows.
Whatever the case may be, unofficial official twitters have become a thing. 
In addition, there have been individuals who stand in place of an organizationto exercise their first amendment right. 
For instance there have been profiles for the Environmental protection agency, however they may be titled "Stuff the EPA can't tell you". On this twitter, they may say the things a member of the EPA would want to say, but can't. Maybe even making fun of Trump by posting climate change facts, or as Trump calls them 'opinions'. This is an easy way to represent a group of disenfranchised people and an even easier way to pair groups of people with things they agree with.
