"Hockeyy Insiderr," Everyone's Favorite Twitter Rumormonger, Is Probably A 17-Year-Old Kid

Jonathan Kyriacou did some internet sleuthing, poking through Hockeyy Insiderr's Facebook account's friends, and narrowing them down by clues Hockeyy Insiderr himself has left. What's left is Alex D., a 17-year-old "self-employed freelance writer" who attends secondary school in Beloeil, Quebec, has played minor hockey and has probably not worked for four NHL teams.

Commenters on Kyriacou's blog are filling in the pieces, including the kid's full name, social media accounts, and other details. All of which is beside the point. The point is that there are no reporters breaking news anonymously, because reporters (rightly) want credit for the hard work they do. So let's lay down some ground rules. If your favorite rumor account isn't willing to put their name behind their words, if they spend more time fighting on Twitter than backing up their reporting, and most importantly if they're wrong 50 times for every time they're right—they're probably a little shit teenager who doesn't deserve anyone's attention.

Exactly.
Can't we all see through some of these frauds?
Kind of like the wizard of Oz.
Lame rumors, always wrong.
Understandably, we want the latest news, but...
No way am I giving some douche the time of day.
Don't even fucking go to their sites.

I have no idea who this is, but just spelling it with two "y"s and two "r"s screams douchey teenager, does it not?

Gotta love the first comment under the story...

Not to be confused with @HockeyyInsideHer, which is Elisha Cuthbert's twitter handle.

This is funny...

GMillerTSN: Until he is overtaken, @TSNBobMcKenzie is insisting that we refer to him as "Your Holiness".

GMillerTSN: Pope Benedict XVI is now on twitter. So far, @TSNBobMcKenzie leads @pontifex in the follower count 439,837 to 75,369.

Can you confess your sins 140 characters at a time? More importanty, does absolution work 140 characters at a time?

I think its gonna take the pope more than 140 characters to confess his sins ... wait ... what?

that being said, you can definitely absolve in 13 characters

How long until the Pope's twitter account is hacked?
