There does seem to be a way to do this.
Something like, save a few tweets as drafts, this gets you the time stamp, and then use one when you want to appear like you know the future.
Not sure as to which sites this works on.

Which Defense Contractors Win After French Attacks?
Now, with the attacks in Paris, defense contractors are gearing up for another round of profit.
Over the last five years the biggest makers of military hardware - Lockheed Martin (NYSE:LMT), General Dynamics (NYSE:GD), Northrup Grumman (NYSE:NOC) and Boeing (NYSE:BA) - have all scored gains that greatly exceeded that of the S&P 500.
Some of the biggest have gone to Northrup Grumman, which recently won an $80 billion contract for bombers that Boeing and Lockheed Martin are protesting. Deliveries start in 2025.
But the real news has been the move of these giant defense contractors into cyber-security, where they have been butting heads with cyber experts like L-3 (NYSE:LLL), Harris (NYSE:HRS) and Raytheon (NYSE:RTN), with great success. Both General Dynamics and Lockheed Martin are expected to be bidding for the government's latest cyber-command contract, while gains in the big hardware makers have mainly exceeded those in the electronics specialists over the last five years.

I think one of the replies in the tweet said if you open a draft on a certain day then post it later it retains the date or you can edit a tweet I may be wrong though. That's twitter though, the detailed wiki page is interesting.
People online are wondering how a tweet describing the current death toll in the French capital could have come out two days before the actual killings occurred.
The answer is a strange mix of incredible coincidence and dumb luck. The account (now suspended) was a bot, automatically creating headlines using the tweets of a real news account called PZFeed Breaking News Feed (@pzf). The bot essentially grabbed parts of old tweets by @pzf and combined them to make fake headlines. These are the two tweets it grabbed to create the conglomerate tweet published on November 11:
BREAKING NEWS: Death toll from Paris terror attack rises to at least 12 - Reuters
— Breaking News Feed (@pzf) January 7, 2015
AFP: Death toll from Nigerian mosque attack rises to at least 120 with 270 others injured t.co...
— Breaking News Feed (@pzf) November 28, 2014
These are both real headlines published by a legitimate news source.
But one refers to a Nigerian mosque attack last November that killed 120 people and injured 270, while the other is about the Charlie Hebdo attack in Paris earlier this year.

Are you seriously going to explain it away without actually reading and/or thinking? I'm not trying to be rude, but it says 120 death and 270 injured.....hello? So now we have a clairvoyant Islamic Extremophobe? ....well wonders never cease.
