emptywheelNotice how he's defining verification as pertaining to journalists, not public figures more generally.
That's nutty, first of all, bc one of the values that pre-Elmo Twitter had was its utility for journalists.
Way to kill more value, boss.
CattsAndCoins@emptywheel Who doesn't want anyone to claim to be a journalist! Shit is literally just a "I paid money" badge, says nothing of the quality of info. How he hasn't gotten this through his head is beyond me.
A Nation For All@cactusdan @emptywheel it's almost like Herschel Walker waving his "badge" at the debate.
