The background briefing was then itself interrupted when press officers saw Tweets on their mobile phones that continued to refer to "commission sources".
The story of the background briefing that was Tweeted live is at the end of the day another example of a disruptive technology running rings around an institution's attempts to manage information. Once again, the EU has fallen behind the curve.
