In an extremely misguided crowdsourcing exercise, Dr. Phil’s account sent out the following query earlier this evening: “If a girl is drunk, is it OK to have sex with her? Reply yes or no to @drphil #teensaccused.†As you can surely imagine, Twitter had quite the reaction to Dr. Phil’s casual musing on sexual assault, and the usually tame #DrPhilQuestions blew up with posts that ran the gamut from outraged to hysterical – something we also saw with #PaulasBestDishes back in June when news of her lawsuit broke. According to BuzzFeed, Dr. Phil’s team said tonight’s now-deleted post was “intended to evoke discussion leading into a very serious [upcoming] show topic.†A spokesperson then removed any belief that the team has 140 characters worth of competency by adding that the tweet “was not intended to be taken lightly. It’s based upon a recent news story, hence the #teensaccused label.â€
