Twitter Inc has banned financial market website Zero Hedge from the social media...

) has banned financial market website Zero Hedge from the social media platform after it published an article linking a Chinese scientist to the outbreak of the fast-spreading coronavirus last week.Zero Hedge said it received a notification from Twitter on Friday, accusing it of violating Twitter’s “rules against abuse and harassment.”

The move against the website came as the coronavirus has stoked a wave of anti-China sentiment around the globe. Hoaxes have spread widely online, promoted by conspiracy theorists and exacerbated by a dearth of information from the cordoned-off zone around China’s central city of Wuhan, where the outbreak began.

Zero Hedge said it initially thought the suspension was triggered by an article it published on Friday about the makeup of the coronavirus. But it said it later learned Twitter had received a complaint from online news website BuzzFeed over a separate article.

You had better report what Jack want journos, or you’re out! Welcome to the end of American journalism

Hey!, cover the whole history (wheres ZeroHedge view?)

And why are people who threatening to kill presidents not being observed and have their accounts suspended? ZEROHEDGE is the truth, this is the only reason why they banned him. Twitter should get sued.

Soooo we are not able to judge for ourselves now. Thank you twitter

They are a financial market website like the Ark Encounter is a museum of natural history.

Protecting the communists is never a good idea.

Ridiculous, when you are reporting the same. 🙈

😂

Wuhan coronavirus: Zero Hedge Twitter ban after doxxing China scientist - Business InsiderFinance blog Zero Hedge was banned from Twitter after it doxxed a Chinese scientist and claimed they created the Wuhan coronavirus The truth must not come out. Good -- Zero Hedge was always a muppet It's not a finance blog. Please don't call it that. Business insider was a good business resource, but you undermine your own credibility by calling that thing a 'finance blog'.. Now I have to drop from my credible sources list.
