And here I was just thinking of all the "bern" possibilities. You've opened up a whole new avenue of puns.

I mean they might have needed permission of the establishment owner, but beyond that...

and had assumed jillmwilson was the owner. I did a quick search, and it looks like Avalon Bakery was quite happy Clinton was there. Unfortunately, the photo in this tweet -- along with Ms Wilson -- isn't from Avalon Bakery. Oops.

37. Clinton’s social media manager misidentified the bakery

The corresponding social media accounts for Wilson are all locked down and set to private. So it’s hard to tell if they were always private or (more than likely) she did so in response to online backlash. (FWIW: While not confirmed, Wilson does look like the woman posted to Clinton’s Instagram, and her profile photos feature her posing next to coffee equipment.)

What’s more interesting is that apparently Clinton’s social media manager misidentified the bakery in the photo op. This photo is from another Detroit coffeeshop called Astro Coffee.


Anyway, this comedy of errors would all make for a great episode on “Veep” next season.

Maybe whoever is managing Hillary's twitter account might think about getting an okay from anyone prominently pictured in a photo before posting. That's just good social media etiquette. Never assume anything.
