Telam's Twitter account published a

controversial message

this Thursday night.

The text was addressed to Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, head of the City Government, for the controls on circulation due to the coronavirus.

From the agency they reported having suffered a "hack."

From the state agency they

admitted the fact

in networks.

The message was a response to a note that the official channel

C5N

had published on Wednesday night.

"There is an agreement between President Alberto Fernández and the head of the Buenos Aires Government Horacio Rodríguez Larreta: restrictions on circulation and controls on public transport in the City of Buenos Aires will be added," is the headline of the news item that apparently

provoked anger

from someone with access to the agency's Twitter account.

The controversial tweet they published on the Télam Twitter account against Larreta.

"Who is going to control ???? He does

not control his penis

, except for a pandemic," they wrote from Télam, in a disqualification of Rodríguez Larreta, a frequent target of grievances of that ilk after their separation.

"Ahhhhhh sorry I thought you were talking about a model," concludes the message.

Although the tweet was

deleted almost instantly

, the time it was online was enough for users to take several

screenshots

 (they differ in the number of retweets and likes) and circulate them on the social network.

Quickly the network was filled with witty messages.

"We must notify the CM (by

Community Manager

) of Télam that the jokes with the chota were for last night," wrote journalist Natalia Torres (@natiftorres), referring to the viralization of a video of Keiko Fujimori.

"Télam - National News Agency of the Argentine Republic", shared Javier Smaldone, with his popular user @misdoscentavos.


The reactions of anger and indignation were not lacking either.

The screenshots show that the message in question was published on Android.

Typically, the agency uses the TweetDeck service to manage its tweets.

Minutes later

, Télam's discharge

arrived

, in which they claimed to have been hacked.

Telam's clarification after the offensive tweet against Larreta that was published on his Twitter account.

"We have indications of having been

victims of a hack
