CNN bought an @cnnbrk account with a million followers

Hard to believe, but the popular twitter account @cnnbrk , which broadcasts news from CNN, has never actually belonged to this media corporation. She admitted that she bought the account only recently, naturally, in order to transfer his huge audience to himself (958,530 followers).

Financial details of the transaction were not disclosed. It is only known that CNN collaborated with the previous account owner James Cox for more than two years, and he recently visited their headquarters in Atlanta for a two-day visit.

Obviously, the account went for a very decent amount. An audience of one million people is worth a lot. By expanding the twitter news feed and adding links to your site there, CNN will receive hundreds of thousands of hits a day (and the corresponding number of banner-shows). This is good money. However, in the near future, CNN has no plans to add these links (apparently, so as not to scare the audience).

It became known about the change of the account holder literally today, when several CNN reporters appeared in the list of cnnbrk friends (earlier this list was empty).
