TWiT is suing Twitter, alleging breach of contract...
On a related note TWiT!=Twitter, just like app!=Apple. Where is the legal case here?

The legal case is that Ev, the CEO of Twitter at the time, confirmed the existence of an oral contract that precludes the two companies from crossing domains. Breach of contract.

Wouldn't there have to be some kind of consideration for it to be a valid contract?

Not getting sued counts as a consideration. Remember TWiT is a much older company.
