twitter.TwitterError: json decoding

[GoogleCodeExporter]

twitter.Api() authenticates fine with credentials, and api.VerifyCredentials() 
returns the expected output.

print th.GetFollowerIDs() however, raises the exception below:

    print th.GetFollowerIDs()
  File "/home/tim/Codebase/trunk/bin/stream-fx/library/twitter.py", line 2969, in GetFollowerIDs
    data = self._ParseAndCheckTwitter(json)
  File "/home/tim/Codebase/trunk/bin/stream-fx/library/twitter.py", line 3674, in _ParseAndCheckTwitter
    raise TwitterError("json decoding")
library.twitter.TwitterError: json decoding

twitter.py version '0.8.2'

Did you check the bottom listed solution to Issue 206 (similar to this one): 
http://code.google.com/p/python-twitter/issues/detail?id=206

This issue is a bad url is being used, meaning that twitter is not even 
returning a json and when python-twitter tries to convert the response to a 
json it is throwing an error. I made a typo when I modified to url initially 
and got the same result, but when I corrected the typo the problem disappeared.
