Kiefer Sutherland fãs are used to seeing him over the course of "24" hours -- now the actor is stepping into the world of 140 characters as a presenter at the 3rd Annual Shorty Awards later this mês in New York.
Sutherland, the Ministry has learned exclusively, will cadastrar-se already-named presenters Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, Stephen Wallem of "Nurse Jackie," Miss USA Rima Fakih and Miss Teen USA Kamie Crawford; Aasif Mandvi of "The Daily Show" will host the ceremony. The Shortys (think Oscars, Emmys, Golden Globes -- but for Twitter) recognize the best producers of short real-time content.
Golden Globe winner Sutherland, currently appearing with Chris Noth, Jason Patric and Jim Gaffigan in "That Championship Season" on old-media Broadway and tweeting as @RealKiefer, is going new media himself this mês with a 10-part Web series for Hulu. "The Confession" stars Sutherland and John Hurt in a good-and-evil story featuring a hit man and a priest. Anyone really need three guesses to figure out who's playing the hit man? (If yes, see the video above.)
Shorty nominations, done via Twitter, have delivered finalists in 30 official categories that look distinctly different than those on other award shows -- and that's before you get to the many community-generated categories. Just take a look at the finalists for actor, actress and celebrity, listed with their Twitter names:

We always knew those One Direction boys were cheeky chappies but they may have gone too far this time!
Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson are the two members of the band that have proved themselves to be pretty funny but X Factor winner, Matt Cardle probably didn't find their latest antics too amusing.
The troublesome duo gave out Matt's mobile phone number to over 7,000 fãs over Twitcam last night!
The boys decided to prank call Matt but it went straight to answerphone and we all know what happens when you reach someone's answerphone. It reads out your number...
Bless them, the boys didn't realise what they'd done for a good few minutes. Check out the video here...
