Why Isn't UITableView Populating From Array

I'm a noob to iphone development (3rd day in xcode) and I'm having trouble populating a tableview from an NSMutableArray. I'm using this tutorial as my guide and my implementation of it is slightly modified so I can show the table within a pageControl. I'm sure my array is populating with data but after the array is populated it doesn't show in the table. I've tried using the reload data method but that cause my app to crash. Any help is greatly appreciated.

MY CODE

Header

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface TwitterView : UIViewController <UITableViewDelegate>{

NSMutableArray *tweets;  
UITableView *twitterTable;    

} 

@property (nonatomic, retain) NSMutableArray *tweets;  
@property (nonatomic, retain) IBOutlet UITableView *twitterTable;
@end

Implementation

#import "TwitterView.h"
#import "Tweet.h"


//JSON 
@interface NSDictionary(JSONCategories)
+(NSDictionary*)dictionaryWithContentsOfJSONURLString:(NSString*)urlAddress;
-(NSData*)toJSON;
@end

@implementation NSDictionary(JSONCategories)
+(NSDictionary*)dictionaryWithContentsOfJSONURLString:(NSString*)urlAddress
{
    NSData* data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL: [NSURL URLWithString: urlAddress] ];
__autoreleasing NSError* error = nil;
id result = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:kNilOptions     error:&error];
if (error != nil) return nil;
return result;
}

-(NSData*)toJSON
{
NSError* error = nil;
id result = [NSJSONSerialization dataWithJSONObject:self options:kNilOptions error:&error];
if (error != nil) return nil;
return result;    
}
@end

@implementation TwitterView

@synthesize tweets;
@synthesize twitterTable;
