Retweeting Bots - Why Is This Smelly Fish Priceless?
By Moon Of Alabama
February 19, 2018 "Information Clearing House" - After I promoted Saturday's piece about the Mueller indictment on Twitter some seemingly automated accounts retweeted my promotion.
The original piece is about an internet marketing scheme that is supposed to have influenced U.S. elections. It is thus amusing that the retweeting bots are part of an internet marketing scheme that is supposed to influence U.S. elections.
But why do they use the line "Omg. Fish is priceless"?
