Top 8 Social Media Fails - No. 7

Making a joke about a shooting on a college campus is not wise to do, especially if you are a Reporter on Twitter.

Welcome to No. 7 on our list of social media fails.

When gunshots starting flying through the library at Florida State University, a University of Alabama student who serves as a campus reporter for ESPNU took to Twitter.

ESPN Reporter Marisa Martin, a sports broadcasting student at the university, tweeted a joke about FSU troubled and talented Quarterback Jameis Winston.

Needles to say, not many found her joke very funny and after she tried to explain why she was standing by her Twitter joke, she ended up deleting her account and claimed she was hacked.

We don't buy that for a second.

Here is the original story on FTVLive.
