@taylorlorenz I think Elon is overplaying his hand here. He thinks that by suspending the accounts of journalists who are critical of him, he can intimidate the ones who remain.

But Twitter is not unique. He's merely accelerating the exodus. Journalists don't need him as much as he needs them.

@samalone @taylorlorenz I agree. He has not read the advertising room at all and overestimated the patience of many for these shenanigans.
