My colleague @taylorlorenz is suspended after seeking comment. I'm still blocked from using Twitter until I delete a tweet that's a piece of reporting.
Elon Musk tells me over email re: @taylorlorenz: "Apparently, Taylor doxxed someone on Twitter, for which there is a minimum one day suspension and her account will be reactivated shortly. That will be raised to seven days going forward." Doesn't provide further detail. Suspension happened shortly after she tweeted at him asking for comment on a story we're reporting for the Washington Post.
@drewharwell @taylorlorenz seems WaPo and WSJ giving Mastodon some coverage had consequences.
@apearlma
All journalistic coverage has some level of consequence. That is why #Journalism needs to be strongly supported by the #RuleOfLaw, in order to remain #Free.
