BREAKING: CBS News and local CBS-owned stations have suspended their use of Twitter
@DrJackBrown
Significant. Nice to see you here btw.

@richsignorelli @DrJackBrown WOW!

Also glad to find Dr. Brown here.

@DrJackBrown
Ha!
Elon is in the finding out stage, and it's not going to be pretty...

Hi Dr. B!👋

@Shushorchid @DrJackBrown Unless this was an end goal.He may have wanted to make money but barring that to bolster the conservative oligarchy prone GOP might be seen as a perk and or a cost of his giant loan from the Saudis.

@Pineywoozle @DrJackBrown

Oh, I truly believe it wasn't his intent.
He was stirring things up at first, then his bravado locked him into an agreement to buy the thing - which he desperately tried to get out of. Ultimately, he was held to agreement, and outsourced funds to pay. Then having not learnt fr what got him into the hotseat in the first place, he started more idiocy (believing his minute knowledge, over the Twt team) as soon as he got it - thus began spinout...

I may be wrong...😬🤷🏻‍♀️

@Shushorchid @DrJackBrown So many possibilities. None of them kind and altruistic. He’s just an awful human.

@Pineywoozle @DrJackBrown

Yes. I agree.

Ego and greed drives him, from what I gleaned. He shares qualities with *whom we shan't name*, i.e. bloviating self-aggrandizing wingbaggery...and believing they know everything, just because they heard someone speak on it...

@Shushorchid @DrJackBrown There is still that tiny part of me that hopes someone will swoop in and save it. (Not realistic but still there) So many lovely friendships will get lost.

@Pineywoozle @DrJackBrown

Because he's tanking the value of it, it's highly unlikely that any one/entity will willingly pay the $ he'd want to recover, and possibly make on it...
That's the thing abt big egos - they can't get out of their own way...

I def made some great friends there, and hoping we'd stay connected...but that environment THERE, is night to THIS day... People are interacting more here! Better environment, in my experience here thus far...

CBS News Pauses Twitter Posts ‘In Light of Uncertainty’ Over Platform

@DrJackBrown Do you mind if I repost this with credit but hashtag it? It needs more eyes.

@Pineywoozle

Yes, good idea. Please do

@DrJackBrown Cool! This whole hashtaging everything takes getting used to but it massively extends the reach of any post.
@DrJackBrown I also heard Playbill has as well. They’ve lost their theater goers now, too.

@DrJackBrown

I don’t get it. I mean it’s one thing to say they will no longer have ads on #Twitter if they did, but why just pull off completely now and announce it first when they could just take a wait and see stance and not lose their place in the algorithm. #CBS #TwitterTakeover

@DrJackBrown Nate burleson seemingly hinted at this Friday morning when he asked how long media could trust twitter as a source.
@DrJackBrown
They can't maintain security/safety and are openly defying FTC.
@DrJackBrown
And he's using a juvenile knee jerk poll to bring back TFG.
