The arrival of Musk may fuel harmful speech in the days before the election.

The urgency owes in part to a deadline on Tuesday, when employees will receive extra compensation tied to stock grants.

Dam Hee Kim, a professor of communication at University of Arizona who studies social media platforms, said the firing of executives and employees could expose the lack of experience in the industry for Musk, who currently runs Tesla and SpaceX. “There will be intense focus and attention directed toward what he says and does in the coming weeks and months,” Barrett said. “There’s little doubt about that.”Musk, who boasts more than 112 million Twitter followers, often posts multiple times per day on subjects that span business, politics and personal hobbies. Sometimes, the posts pertain to highly charged political topics such as the Ukraine-Russia war and Taiwan’s sovereignty.

Election integrity lol you mean the biased democrats that worked there can't let the leftist fake story on Twitter

'experts'

Don't worry, ABC. You guys can still suppress laptop stories.

MSM is losing the narrative.

What does elonmusk think of the experts? And what they have to say?

اراقبكم من بعيد وبحذر من الصداقة. عصفور السطح

This ElongatedMuskrat head twit thing is another attempted shiny object distraction timed for the midterms by a fella with $$'s. Yote 🌊 🇺🇸

Who appointed you God for such pronouncements? U only afraid that your version will drown in the sanity expressed.

This shit is hilarious. The blinders on some of these outlets

Fairness has returned !!!

What you actually mean is Twitter won't be able to join ABC in your interference with our election process by covering up important stories and lying about others. You are nothing more than the propaganda arm of the Democratic party. Grow some integrity.

I actually started to think about this today. If you pull out all the protections, eventually it becomes a cesspool and no one can trust anything on Twitter. It will cease to be relevant. Kind of like MySpace.

Oh cry me a damn river. For the last 2 years it's been nothing but Democrats bashing Republicans and spreading a thick layer of BS while everyone who says something against them gets fact checked to death or get banned. Playing field is now even boys and girls.

'experts' I think we had enough of that in the last past years

I’d feel worse about it if it weren’t called “content policing”.

The left can’t police twitter anymore and it’s driving them crazy. 😂

Democrat losing grip on Twitter and they don't like it. Everything is hate speech if it isn't a leftist view point

elonmusk isn't stupid .. he's going to run it lean and mean .. hopefully more fun at the same time ...

Getting the excuses in early for your paymasters eh?! The sycophants will of course repeat the rhetoric but people are awake to the democrats BS now, it’s gonna be a humiliating defeat and you know it

Dems cannot think independently. They have teeny tiny minds. So it frightens them that anyone reads things they disagree with.

Is Max Zahn a graduate of the KGB Institute? It’s probably just a rumor, but I had to ask.

Like when ABC or the MSM suppressed the Hunter Biden Laptop story as authorized by our government? What a tool you are ABC.

In other words Dems can't stop the other side from being heard .

Rubbish. Elon has done more for free speech than all news agencies have collectively in the last 5 years. He is neither left nor right. He stands for the truth. so should you. Shame on you. shame

Content policing? Isn’t that really just censorship with a fancy name? I’m so glad the bird is free at last.

Was twitter responsible for election integrity now?

Means the Democrats can't push their narrative and suppress the Republicans. They name it as misinformation, but the only information they want out is what the Democrats want you to hear

If anything, I go to reputable pages, so would I have to worry about ABC? Fir false election information?

Which experts? The ones that were censoring the truth?

So is it okay now for conservatives to speak now? 🤣

Lol didn’t these brainiacs label the hunter Biden investigation As disinformation simply bc it made Joe Biden look bad come election dAy? And yet it turns out it was all true afterwards? I think Elon is correcting a problem

Can't believe ABC has anything to say about election integrity. They are the problem. May as well lock the fox in the chicken coop.

Cue violins… 🎻

How could it get worse than it's been the last 6 years. It can only get better considering there was no integrity.

Time to leave twitter.

Suck it up.

'Experts' warn.... 🤣😅😂

How does anyone take the media serious any more?

Or not

Good news

May🤔🤔🤔🤔

More fake news the American News medias been fueling nonsense for 6 straight years

Free speech should be the bedrock of our republic. Quit pushing leftist ideology and disinformation.

Anything that doesn't cosign your propaganda BS you guys label as a threat. ChiefTwitMusk

Harmful speech didn’t seem to matter to you guys before he bought Twitter. There has always been harmful speech on social media.

In the days before Musk there was always hateful speech before elections. So nothings going to change? Nope!

Harmful to your propaganda. Doen below just a very small lust of the lies you've been peddling

This is very easy, any add that pops up on your feed. Block it. I’ve now blocked dozens just today.

Once again the Left Wing media fuels false propaganda and false narratives.

It’s time for y’all to start doing journalism or be gone.

You mean speech that doesn’t conform to the liberal narrative that subscribes to. Be a real journalist for a change not a Biden’s te mouthpiece.

Lol, yeah right!!! The propaganda and fake news is over

Where is Joseph McArthy?

How so? The main stream media, ABC, CBS, NBC, have been doing this for years and no one has said anything you bought everything that isn’t in your narratives

If only there were a way to not read hurtful words...

It will be much better than what corporate media is doing right now.

What is “harmful” speech and who gets to decide that? Liberal snowflakes afraid of words and ideas differing from theirs. Good thing we don’t have them with the job of invading Omaha beach. 🤦‍♂️

ABC you are a disgrace. What are you afraid of?

Harmful or funny?

Don't you mean truthful

Scattered211 I feel like elonmusk thinks this is a big joke.

ABC News wants Twitter in the hands of woke lefties.

WPLG LOCAL10 ABC affiliate is bias Rep baught and sold .. I wonder how much $ exactl are they getting to Cleverly push the Reps agenda..Hope its worth loosing viewers..it takes a while for some to catch on VoteBlueAllTheWayThru22..... itsX

This often backfires in the ol U S of A. If this looks like dictator speech, it probably is.

Where's the police body cam and security footage? Who's the 3rd person that opened the door for police? Who plans a home invasion in underwear? Why was Mr Pelosi hit with a hammer only after police arrived? Mr Pelosi allowed to make a call during a bathroom break?

Want some whine with this cheese?

The Truth is Finally Going To Come Out ( 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It’s great seeing the left squirm! 😂

Re: 'The arrival of Musk may fuel harmful speech' I never thought I'd see the day that a US News Outlet would regard FREE SPEECH as 'HARMFUL' Just disgusting!

.OMG. What is wrong , will FreeSpeech adversely affect your FakeNews. Are you afraid the Indoctrinated might get the truth.

Only imagine if elonmusk could run for President. That would be epic! On a side note I rented a Tesla (that’s all National had) and I will say it was amazing. Not a huge EV fan for a number of reasons, but may have been swayed

It's only harmful to the side that loses if the information is correct.

👍

Seems to me that requiring a verifiable ID (plus credible fact checking) would be more effective than a fee.

It also means dems cant censor people and they will have to based on their merrits now.

Till date Jerry_Maguire55 has been a great inspiration to me on this Bitcoin market, at first trade i deposited $200 been a starter & after 2 weeks i got $1150 return, not so much but surely good for a starter, it’s been 3 months now and i keep trading and earning with him

Who is this Elon lady I keep hearing about?

Harmful speech so there is no free speech lol 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

Obviously who ever authored this for ABC never been on Twitter.. Actually Musk will be doing just the total opposite while restoring free speech!

People are going to say mean words OH No!!! How about that democrat inflation, tho?

SpecialAssignment NYC Crime Focus

Why don't you liberal buts shut up take off the damn view

The arrival of Musk may fuel speech we don’t like in the days before the election.

Lol I hope so.

You mean hardcore truths and facts.

When you say harmful do you mean like opposing views, two sides of a conversation, a discussion....like free speech ?

Nope. Musk made no such statement. Few speech is not without limits — by law and constitution.

OTOH, anything ABC News puts out may fuel harmful bias on behalf of the DNC in the days before the election. I'll take the free speech platform vs the censored speech of the mainstream media.

The thought of not being able to control the narrative, kind of has legacy media in their feelings…

You misspelled FreeSpeech

george bush 14y ago said add ukraine to nato foreshadow nuland f eu coup 2014 support =1. 2001 pentagon memo kill occupy iraq to syria

'harmful' speech that makes TheDemocrats look worse than they already do as a party? 😁

'Harmful' being defined as anything to the right of the House Progressive Caucus platform.

Please don’t hurt my ears with your speech! Words are violence!

'Arrival?' Have you ever heard of PayPal?

i really hope he didn't funnel from defense contract $$$$ from other companies in order to make this purchase. but if he did, i hope he spends a long, long time in prison.

Boy these liberals are terrified of Elon musk huh 🤣

Oh dear. Oh my. Do you have any extra pearls I can clutch?

Lefties want a monopoly on harmful speech lmao

Harmful speech toward whom?

May? It's already happening and Musk is doing the lying and spreading hate and misinformation.

Good. Equal opportunity.
