I don't think journalists (in general) -- and certainly not the organizations they work for -- fully understand the threat Musk represents to the future of free expression and journalism itself.

Begging him to reinstate the banned accounts is pure folly. It is bended-knee supplication to a sociopath who now controls a powerful media company. But the power of his company depends in no small degree on keeping journalists there.

Leave. Now.

Exactly. This should be stopped in its tracks now. Let Twitter die. What Musk is doing should not be rewarded.

No, don't "let" it die. #KillTwitter
@BahstanCubano @dangillmor
Ok, then kill it and prosecute Musk, just to annoy him. There must be something in the closet on him.
