NSDateFormatter Twitter JSON Api

I'm trying to format an NSDate out of a date given by the Twitter api (JSON). I'm using a NSDateFormatter therefore. 

NSString *dateString = string;

    NSDateFormatter *dateFormat = [[NSDateFormatter alloc] init];
//[dateFormat setDateFormat: @"EEE dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z"];
    NSDate *date = [dateFormat dateFromString:dateString]; 

    NSLog(@"%@",date);
    return date;

But, this returns null. The date the Twitter API is giving me is looking like this: Thu, 19 Jan 2012 07:04:51 +0000.

Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Thanks!

You missed the comma following the day in your format string. Correctly:

[dateFormat setDateFormat: @"EEE, dd MMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Z"];
