I simply can't comprehend this nonsense that most Americans don't know what Twitter is and weird crappy diagrams don't really help with that. Our local homeless ministry is on Twitter (granted they only tweet once a month, but still).
And interestingly enough it does seem indeed that most Americans DO know what Twitter is:

87% of respondents had heard of Twitter, compared to 88% who had heard of Facebook. (Note that the survey population was 12 and up, including a representative portion of seniors).

From and Edison Survey done back in 2010
So when the news quotes Twitter, and especially in the 2016 race, where Donald Trump's Twitter feed has become almost nightly news, people know what the Hell it is. Saying otherwise just shows that you are a moron.
Of course the original post indicated that the Tweets end up on Facebook eventually (and they do) and then get shared. Are you next going to assert that people don't know what Facebook is?
