Although an image attributed to BBC News Online displays that headline, along with a picture of Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson, no such headline was posted to the website, according to the BBC. The image of the headline is digitally manipulated. https://leadstories.com/hoax-alert/2021/06/fact-check-bbc-news-did-not-post-headline-about-tom-hanks-being-arrested-for-child-pornography-charges.html

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1750404698807660949
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
