Twitter Suit
In May 2009, La Russa filed a lawsuit against Twitter, for allegedly allowing an imposter to post "derogatory and demeaning" updates with an account under La Russa's name. One of the posts made joking reference to 2002 death of Cardinals pitcher Darryl Kile. According to reports on June 5, 2009, Twitter had settled with La Russa, agreeing to pay his legal fees and make a donation to animal welfare group that he founded, Tony La Russa's Animal Rescue Foundation.Associated PressCardinals manager Tony La Russa sues Twitter BNO News: La Russa says Twitter has agreed to pay legal fees and...Career as Manager
