Steve Cohen likes a Tweet and creates controversy

Steve Cohen reportedly liked a recent tweet regarding the ongoing MLB lockout negotiations. The tweet is centered around the fact that throughout the intense negotiations, both parties have had changing fates. While initially, it seemed like the owners were attempting to get a deal past the players, recent reports claim that it is the players that are more reluctant to negotiate. But perhaps the tweet is the most telling.

The tweet that Cohen reportedly liked sets out that the owners want to have the upper hand. “They want their offer accepted or denied,” wrote the user. Which is why no offer from the Players Association could be enough to put an end to the negotiations.

However, through a more unified sleuthing effort; reporter Joel Sherman put together that this was all fallout from Cohen reportedly not understanding the interface.

Sherman wrote that Cohen’s liking of the tweet was ‘totally unintentional’. In fact, when pressed to understand, Cohen even went as far as to say that “he does not even know how to retweet.”
