[Air-L] Including screennames with tweets

[Hayes, Rebecca M]

Dear All,
Can you please weigh in on the decision to include or not include screennames
when we cite tweets in a book? The book is on new media and crime,
and we are using tweets in a few places as examples of some different discussions.

We are back and forth on whether we should include the screennames and at others or disclude them. The arguments we have seen thus far, are to include them because it was made public and we are citing someones words. The other argument is to disclude them
as the person did not consent to have it printed in that way persay, and the screenname attached in our book could be used to find and harass the person. What are your thoughts?

Thank you,
Becky
