Twitter CEO Elon Musk said social media companies should not interfere with political elections, especially to the benefit of one party or one party's candidate.

Fox News contributors Joe Concha and Ari Fleischer react to 'Twitter Files' Part 3 and the company's efforts to censor conservatives on 'Hannity.'

Musk predicted Trump likely still would have lost without Twitter’s involvement, but noted the company should not have taken such action.

So does ex45 & his supporters undermine as reported. I can not wait & read the January6thCmte report. See the evidence collected gathered & testimonies by the 1000+ witnesses.

It is wrong. Just like Muellers report found interference on social media by Russia in favor of Trump.

Dems are always over-using “democracy” and now we know why.😡

We ♥️ you elonmusk and we want to thank you for helping us. Now, take over Facebook!

Wrong is an opinion that isn't illegal.

CEO of social media company uses his account on that platform with massive clout to tell people how to vote. Says social media companies should not interfere. HMMMMMM

Now for Google to be cleaned out of silencers of citizens.

But election interference by government officials is ok cuz you’re all entitled scumbags promoted by real fake news companies like foxnews Got it 🤔

Give trump the election he won

We need action, not small talk ! Fix this !

🥱

Saukel What about interference by “news” networks? (I’m talking about you, Fox) Your thoughts?

Better than MSM Utter GARBAGE

He is doing the exact same thing

Playuhs gonna play.

so true

Waiting to hear about the other side…

If that's the case, he should never have tweeted his opinion during the mid-terms. He owns the biggest SM megaphone, that carries a lot of influence.

So they allegedly favored one side over the other? What about when mainstream media does that? LIKE !

I am disappointed that the lack of outrage by the USA for that been done to our university. I wish there way the Supreme Court could step and make thing right. trump be our president! We have been cheated by liberal media and democrats. Is there a violentmistice!!!

People do not have to pay attention to social media and should think for themselves.

Damn right it is!

so when you do basically the same thing by deciding which stories to run its ok?

I want to know where I can sign up for the class action lawsuit as it is clear that Twitter banned and denied me their services because I was a conservative while they PROFITED from my subscription !!!! SAME thing with Facebook !!!

I think that ythis is part of a case that Hillary could have brought up in the 2016 election for PA, WI and MI. Those margins of error votes cost her the riection but she took the loss like a champ. Gracefully.

Ya… do we need to talk about 2016… Facebook… Cambridge anal… your so divided, so sad.

FOX is a propaganda channel. Let's see ALL the contracts between TRUMP AND HANNITY. TRUMP AND CARLSON. TRUMP and your network. HYPOCRITES.

MalcolmNance And yet he is flooding Social Media with the most notorious liars and misinformation! elonmusk is so full crap!

Isn’t interference of political views Elons whole platform of Twitter?

So are the lies put out by Newsmax, OANN and FOXNews every day.

Especially when it is blamed on a whole other country and incites international confrontation

Now do a story on Fox News interfering in elections, denying school shootings, spreading false information, racism, sexism, transphobia, xenophobia and being a complete tool of conservative grifter Rupert Murdoch.

Add media companies, and I totally agree. Fox has acted as the propaganda arm of the Republican Party and Trump for a long, long time.

🔴 ...interference goes both ways 🔹..then you add Musk telling people to vote right. 👁️

It was the interference that got him elected in 2016

Elon likes to tell lies just like trump. Twitter Files= Lies and bull 🐂💩 GOPLiesAboutEverything TwitterFiles

Why would Trump's FBI under the orders of FBI Director Chris Wray (who Trump picked) work with Twitter to suppress information in order to help the Democrats? It doesn't make any sense. Wouldn't someone in the FBI have told Trump that his FBI was conspiring against him?

Spreading Russian Propaganda is Gaslighting people 🙄

Absolutely

But that's the only way the left can win...

Hypocrisy truly is your middle name, is it not, elonmusk?

How about the vast majority of uneducated and unintelligent people that actually get fooled by things said on social media. I think that’s the actual issue. News Facts problem Solution Education IntellegenceCrisis

Elon musk is a hero.

He invited everyone to vote Republican on his social media platform. Do you see the hypocrisy there, Fox?

Oh gosh this dude musk is so annoying lol he’s like hiccups

In unrelated news. The Biden administration is investigating Elon Musk for his foreign connections. The man that puts classified US satellite in orbit. And made the US independent of Russian engines, and manned space flight (from Obama/Biden) politics.

So Bill Barr authorized this shit? Really?! Sounds like he was brought in by the deep state to help sink Trump, what a total scumbag.

Don't tell that to a Democrat! They YELL ELECTRON DENIIER

Wrong is Wrong even if everyone is doing it. Right is Right even if no one is doing it.

Ironically Fox News covers this subject. Will it take the world’s richest person to buy Fox and expose the behind the scenes manipulation of information just like Twitter’s
