Addition of new social event to Streaming API - retweet has been retweeted

In order to support additional social events in Streaming API we will be adding the payload for social event “retweet has been retweeted”. The payload will look like the following JSON and will be gradually rolled out starting on: 01/20/2015. The changes will be present in userstreams and sitestreams only. The format and notation in this payload is in line with our format for previous [social event’s payloads][1]. For example, the event type is "retweeted_retweet", source is the user performing the retweet of your tweet, target is the creator of the retweet and target_object is the retweet being retweeted. {
