Twitter suspended several high-profile journalists Thursday evening who have been covering the company and Elon Musk.Twitter changed its policies around accounts that track private jetsThe accounts of Ryan Mac of The New York Times, Donie O'Sullivan of CNN, Drew Harwell of The Washington Post, Matt Binder of Mashable and independent journalist Aaron Rupar were all suspended as of Thursday evening.
The suspensions come as Musk has backtracked on his promise that he would run Twitter as a free speech absolutist, reinstating
It's now a private company, musk can do what he wants. What did you expect?
The dedication made by fomer Twitters CEO'S, for selling the platform was a big mistake. Twitter was ment for credible activities. But now, the platform has become shackles, and lost its values.
Don't get mad because you believed his bs
, washingtonpost, SallyBuzbee:
When it gets personal and families get involved, the gloves come off. Why is that so hard to comprehend. These 'journalists' seem to think anything goes to get the story until someone fights back. Then they cry foul.
Free speech is the freedom to express an opinion, NOT to risk someone's life by doxxing. It's a crime.
🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡🤬😡
He deleted them for encouraging violence against him and his family by tweeting his real time location. I suppose you would be okay if it was done to you? Maybe that should be the new policy🤔😉
South African dude & his Saudi partners already going after: -America’s most favorite Dr, Fauci -20 yr old college student -Journalists - Free speech
CNN supports doxxing people
Things are only going to get worse. The answer is to migrate elsewhere.
'Unjustified suspensions' - This is a flat out lie. They were told that linking the personal data of his private plane was doxxing. They did it knowing there would be consequences. They did it with intent that Musk would come under harm. It was not unjustified you hacks
Let see how Aaron Rupar feels……
“It’s a private company, they can do what they want.” Remember this?
When it came to The Twitter Files being released, you had nothing to say. And those proved that the company engaged in targeted, unjust activity towards conservatives. Your side no longer has free reign to do whatever they want, with no consequences anymore.
They broke Twitter policies and put people in harms ways . Perfectly justifiable.
So yall can dish it, but not take it?
Can he get rid of Anderson 'mini' Cooper too?
Concerning for you because the narrative is being crushed and power hates losing power….
Activists doxx children, not Journalists. Fvck em...
Hahaha go on Elon you legend! Nothing more entertaining than seeing lunatics having a meltdowns on twitter x
Proving Musk is a hypocritical liar!
It's free as long you're not saying anything negative about his narcissistic ass...
Indonesia masih menggelar Indonesia fashion week yaitu orang orang yang di bebaskan dari dalam tahanan untuk semua negara
Musk needs to back up his claims with facts. Let’s see the tweets by these people as proof.
thereidout Oh my liberals are having a melt down over the facts. Not used to seeing that huh?
thereidout Why is anyone using Twitter?
If you think you can be arrested for yelling fire in a theater, stay away from free speech issues....
He clearly is running it in order to give racist groups, terrorists, conspiracy theorists and bigots a safe place to recruit and spread their message - he and the Saudis own it - he can whine, lie and ban who he wants.
Where were your tears for President Trumps or everyone else's suspension? Are you fcking kidding me right now?
They are all posting the location of Elons private jet knowing he clearly stated not to post his jet. His sons life was in danger due to that.
All the sudden journalists care about free speech of suspended accounts.. lol Pathetic.
Blah blah blah President Trump blah blah blah.
It looks like Elon Musk wants freedom of speech except for the people he feels bully’s him.
So, a journalist who hates you, shows tracker & link of where you are. Stalker knows how to find you, now. He attacks car, w/ your kid inside. Journalist, says that's not doxxing. Its as if they wanted some crazy to do bad on you? Nah, humans never get someone else to do harm.
Why it be so? Surely it must be questioned & challenged.
Hes a skirt. Got Boo’d now like a child gonna act out
Even people like Elon Musk have a basic right to something called 'privacy' and that other thing called 'safety'.
In the name of 'Free Speech', how would you like your address published online? Or your phone number? The names of your kids and where they attend school? Better yet, given it's all free speech, how about we just constantly track your kids every minute of everyday?
Just drop out of the news game. You forgot how to Report on the important happenings of the day. Dem puppets a good job?
...keep your panties on libs ...can't handle your own medicines ...hilarious
“Activists pretending to be journalists” fixed it!

Hey SallyBuzbee let’s see your tweets or WaPo stories about how censorious and anti-free speech twitter had been for the last 3 years!!
Why do you want to report his exact location? Are you trying to put elonmusk in danger?
did absolutely right. Journalists do not know professional ethics. I would also make them political corpses.
Elon Musk intends to run Twitter as a platform dedicated to Putin.
You were for suspending Trump and for covering up the Hunter Biden story, you're a joke
Two words. Princess Diana.
Musk trying to take over tucker Carlson for penis head of the year.
free speech my you know what
MSM no journalism left. It is all LSM. NO TRUTH LEFT IN THESE SO CALLED JOURNALISTS. THEY ARE ALL BUNCH OF UNTRUTHFUL PEOPLE!!!!!! Misleading their viewers !!!
It is about time the crap nbc has been pulling for years comes home to roost….nbc news is nothing more than propaganda spreaders,biased, unethical and without credibility….
Good.
What goes around comes around. Now the left will get a taste of their own medicine.
WaPo interviewed NBC interviewed CNN.... and the list go on. A hysterical reaction that is quite fun to watch.
🤷🏼♂️
The major news organizations should end their relationship with Twitter immediately, and the journalists should immediately delete their accounts if they want to send a message. Advertisers would stop all ad buys on Twitter if they don't like what's going on. Free market baby.
Don’t dox and you won’t get suspended….pretty simple
UROCKlive1 Pretty pathetic and childish! 🙄
'Harwell was banished from Twitter without warning, process or explanation, following the publication of his accurate reporting about Musk. Our journalist should be reinstated immediately.'
Good gosh. Get your facts straight. Aren’t you journalists anyway? It was specifically for Doxing against TOS. Which is reasonable and will not change.
'Twitter’s increasing instability and volatility should be of incredible concern for everyone who uses Twitter. We have asked Twitter for an explanation, and we will reevaluate our relationship based on that response.'
tell the whole story
Ooooooo now it’s an issue.
2022_Karma Doesn’t seem like the best way to slow down Tesla stock free fall.
JoJoFromJerz Damn, even reporting about Musk suspending an account that follows his jet can get you suspended. And Mastodon? What’s up with that?
“Journalists” 😂
“Covering the company” Yea ok
Don’t Doxx ppl
No banned them for doxxing his family stop lying and gas lighting people you f****** liars
Musk = the most fragile snowflake.
Oh the karma of this happening to the left is uber-satisfying
They weren’t journalists
Love the misleading title.democrats always have to mislead or lie because if they didn't no one would support them.
So much for free speech
Journalist or activist
Just like Kanye elonmusk will be posting swastika or saluting to Hitler…I live seeing these kind of maggots go down the drain
Time to go y’all. Let’s turn this platform into Truth.
Can someone teach this fucking neckbeard how to shave please?
Look at the cry baby hypocrites when the tables a turned. At least it wasn't the government telling him to bam them!
Protector of free speech, right……
The doxxing led to lowlifes going after his toddler son and journaliss today think it's funny and continued posting his locations. How can anyone think that's ok?
elonmusk Can’t take the truth? Don’t like bad things being ssid about you? Free speech- only speech you like? Silencing your critics? 🤮🤮🤮 Are you trying to kill twitter?
And here's NBC to further prove that this was an organized liberal stunt.
they broke doxxing rules, why can't you report on the truth for a change instead of bashing anyone who isn't full blown on left/democrat..
There!
So much for free speech...
Not journalists. Propagandists.
Twitter hatred of crypto must be particularly irritating 😆
JoJoFromJerz But free speech? elonmusk is a liar, a coward and a suppressor of the media.
🤘
Snapping8Turtle Good they deserve it!
Elon Musk is a narcissistic coward, this is how they act.
NBC uses misleading headline on journalists who incite violence against Musk and his family. That's a real headline!!! Vox Populi
If doxxing a person puts their life in danger, then banning them is appropriate! Buy! elonmusk
I like his Black Rag. I Approve.
I didn’t see this headline when conservative-leaning journalists were not only suspended, but had their accounts permanently banned. Grow up people.
He has gone full angry dad mode on anyone mocking the attack aimed at his toddler aged son or continuing to post on how to follow his family. Hard to find fault in that being the reason for a scorched earth approach.
Most people here haven't read the article, just here to talk shit.
elonmusk is the new Joseph Goebbels.
Thanks a lot jack ..
What are you going to do ? Are you going to continue to provide free content to support a fascist platform that bans journalists who speak truth to power?
They linked to the site for people to track his whereabouts, right? I’m putting that together from your article. Wasn’t his family almost attacked? And these people kept pouring it on with sharing his location? If I know this I know you do. Just report the news.
I know particularly Aaron Ruper who was tracking conservative world and their controversies. He is a journalist with liberal trend but wasn't propagating hate, divisions or falsehoods. I think this latest move by Twitter carves its own way towards the grave.
HM_Q_Thicctoria Lol. We have a new Twitler in town.
Uh oh, NBC account is next.
BlackKnight10k What a snowflake, literally, I mean have you ever seen a live person that color?
Kim Jong Musk strikes again! He needs to get real!
They should have followed the TOS
is this the guy who lied to become a citizen?
Elon Musk is a snowflake that hates free speech
There a new sheriff in town boys.
Y'all want him to feel so bad you can taste it
Fixed it
Come2ThinkOfIt;why..sure..let's not disrespect 🚀boy's request 2 leave his GulfstreamG700SuperJet alone.Seriously!Respect his wish.Why?Because it's not our bees-wax!Our bees-wax is 2 get the General Public 2 support a Law Prohibiting Fascists from Running 4 Public Office. 1SOS
BellumLator Not journalists
JoJoFromJerz It's about 'free speech,' though, is it?
So much for free speech...He's a f**king joke. Another man child.
Imagine going to Mars with Elon. If you say the wrong things, he'll cut off your oxygen supply.
Actually let me do your job for you NBC. They were suspended for doxing. Do better NBC!
I thought that’s what he wanted 🤷🏽♀️
Explain to me how breaking the ToS on Twitter and getting your account suspended considered 'Censorship'? You break the rules on his platform, he has the right to suspend you. Facebook has been doing this for years.
moorehn Maybe it’s true that Musk bought it to wreck it
Free speech huh. Lol.
I’m against this because I’m for free speech, but you guys don’t get to complain one bit about this. You were all for it when it suited you.
Oof, it was nice knowing you guys
Oh this is getting funny.
'. . . journalists who have been covering Elon Musk.' Tracking or stalking? Would you want to be physically stalked? If someone were enabling that you would want hat stopped.
So much for Elon’s freedom of speech! Such a little weasel!
BMeiselas Apartheid Joffrey thought silencing them would make the stories go away. It'll do the opposite. Shows once again he ain't smart.
Censorship has arrived to twitter.
Wait what ?!! Free speech ?
Why were they suspended?
FAFO
elonmusk thinks he's Galileo; in reality he's the Inquisition. You can ban journalists and rant like a faux intellectual, but no amount of money can buy him truth: 'Eppur si muove.'
BMeiselas STOP BUYING ADS Apple MSNBC amazon
LineGoesDown 🫡 see you guys later
NYT is next
It’s a narrative thing.. his narrative.. he must be right.
Elon Musk, the dictator of Twitter, has suspended several journalists. In true authoritarian style, he had earlier fired people at Twitter who had criticized his policies. Musk reportedly has also stopped paying rent for Twitter’s offices — so now he’s Chief Executive Squatter?
Because he loves “free speech”? He’s gone Howard Hughes with social media crazy. 😂
MichaelEMann The clock is ticking for
travis_view I don’t know how he’s done it, but he’s actually making Facebook seem appealing.
MSNBC Where is freedom of speech that he claims?!
Mr Musk's idea of free speach didn't last long. This guy is quite a farce
Build your own platform. Be honest for once in your lives, call it something like Doxxer, or Where’s Elon Now?
MSNBC They just suspended me a couple of days ago too; because I cussed.
MSNBC This guy is worse than trump. I mean seriously worse when it comes to freedom of speech.
Or has suspended people who tell bare faced lies?
Ok tell the truth news why were they banned did they post elonmusk private plane location?
So this is the Twitter file scandal I’ve been hearing so much about!
