Journalists who won’t delete Musk tweets remain locked out of Twitter

Musk suspended reporters from Twitter and later reinstated them, with a catch: They must delete tweets related to the account @ElonJet, which has tracked Musk’s plane using public data.

@juddlegum I really don't know how any self-respecting journalists remain on Twitter at this point. Where's the self-respect and solidarity?

I hate that S.O.B. He is such a hypocrite. I wish we could just call it the Spruce Goose and have everyone know what we are talking about.

@juddlegum It's a new feature he's trying out called "not so free" speech.

@juddlegum These reporters must have figured by now that by staying with Twitter after Musk’s abuse, they are nothing more than a pawn for Musk. Have a spine and quit Twitter. A reporter quitting Twittet permanently is hurting Musk permanently.

Those who delete cannot be journalists.

@juddlegum Let Twitter become a haven of misinformation and stupidity and only have ads by Alex Jones selling Male Enhancement Pills. Without real journalists, advertisers will flee Twitter even faster.

@juddlegum @Lee_in_Iowa we need global social and communication media that is no longer subject to centralized, owner-controlled, ad-driven interests. We need decentralized social platforms - this is the real story here

@juddlegum Forget that. I'm a no-talent bum poster whose career isn't depend upon multiple followers, but at some point you have to tell authoritarians to go play with themselves. #twitter is the new 4chan.

@juddlegum the space Karen’s idea of free speech is kinda spacey! I wish I could wake up tomorrow to a Christmas miracle; a world without musk and trump.
