I queried home_timeline and got an incorrect favorited status for a
retweet. The tweet in question was not favorited at all by me. The
call to home_timeline was authenticated, so according to the api docs
on "favorited" (boolean indicating if a status has been marked as a
favorite by the authenticating user), the  value for favorited in this
case should be 'false'. I'm I understanding it wrong or is the data
incorrect?
