Is Twitter making you immoral? Daily Mail says yes, science says no

Updated

The Daily Mail, a UK newspaper, made its own headline today on Twitter after publishing a story linking Twitter usage to an increase in immorality.

The article, which relies heavily on a yet-to-be-published research paper out of the University of Southern California Brain and Creativity Center, claims that the constant interaction and updating taking place on Twitter and other social networking sites doesn't leave enough time for the brain to process the emotions; specifically ones relating to human suffering.
