"Baseball manager Tony La Russa has officially dropped his lawsuit against Twitter concerning a fake Twitter account created in his name.  \nWe reported on June 5th that a settlement had been reached, according to La Russa, with Twitter agreeing to pay his legal fees.  Twitter, however, disagreed - they fired back with a blog post explaining that they had no plans to settle as the St. Louis Cardinals manager had claimed.  \"Mr. La Russa\u2019s lawsuit was an unnecessary waste of judicial resources bordering on frivolous. Twitter\u2019s Terms of Service are fair and we believe will be upheld in a court that will ultimately dismiss Mr. La Russa\u2019s lawsuit\", the posting read.\nNow it seems Twitter finally got their way: the AP reports today that La Russa has quietly dropped the suit, with no compensation from Twitter.  In the meantime, Twitter also launched Verified Accounts to protect against this fake account issue."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
