— David Ortiz (@davidortiz) April 1, 2014 39K+ retweets! Plus, here are 14 publications, including SB Nation, that embeded the tweet in an article.

”We were thrilled to see the special, historic moment David Ortiz captured with his Galaxy Note 3 during his White House visit. It was an honor to help him capture such an incredible and genuine moment of joy and excitement.“Of course. This photo of genuine happiness is a genuine LIE.
