The Associated Press was ridiculed after posting and then deleting what many considered a sensual tweet on Oscar winner Michelle Yeoh and Oscar nominee Angela Bassett.
Author Stefanie Iris Weiss joked,"It was literally your best tweet ever, BRING IT BACK."
"AP and the delete button locked in a long embrace, their bare, muscle-bound arms wrapped around each other," culture writer Jill Krajewski wrote. "’Their bare, muscle-bound arms wrapped around each other’… not what I would’ve focused on but you do you @AP," musician Dan Le Sac tweeted. The account also explained,"The AP has deleted a previous tweet about the Oscars after party because it contained awkward wording and lacked context."
