So, you're envisioning this:
Me: Tweet. "Blue 21, that's a push."
Blue 21: "Hey, he raped me."
It's not impossible, of course, for unfounded accusations to be reported, but most reporters (and all prosecutors) are aware of their obligation to have some evidence beyond mere say-so. We have libel and slander laws in this country for a reason.
This one won't keep me up at night.
