"The Washington Post continued to run Twitter ads to boost views to its branded content campaigns on the platform late last month, despite one of its reporters being banned a few weeks prior"

I'm that reporter. It's now been more than a month since I was suspended on Twitter for sharing factual journalism. I miss a few people there, but the website has been easily replaced.
@drewharwell I wonder why the Washington post decides to fund an alt right website? One that bans journalists.
Maybe it’s time to wake them up and cancel subscriptions.
@landley IF this is true, they're hedging their bets. Chances are if they have a contract that includes a discount, there's some sort of TforC with a penalty attached that is almost always still less than the term. They just don't want to pay it, in case....
If they're really motivated by principle tho they should look *very* closely at the rest of the terms, my money is on Twitter not adhering to many of them already.
