44. When they're Tweets we *want* to believe.

Like the ones saying that an unnamed photographer claimed she was awake for the photo, it was doctored, people who admit they might have been flying the plane but still have concrete information they're not sharing with news agencies that she was awake for it, etc.

We want to believe anything that discredits this allegation, and enough people share anything that supports their view reflexively that these end up here.
