I discuss recent observations of asymmetries in Doppler shifts across T Tauri jets, and argue that the observed asymmetric velocity shifts and gradients do not indicate jet rotation. These observations, therefor, cannot be used as a support of a magnetized disk wind. The interaction of the jets with a twisted-tilted (wrapped) accretion disk (or the variable velocity precessing model) accounts better for the observations.
