It gets more absurd every day for Big Journalism to keep pouring its work into Saudi-government-funded Twitter, which is controlled by a right-winger who hates real journalism and boosts extremists.

It gets even more absurd for journalism orgs to keep embedding tweets in their stories, given Musk's unfathomable destruction of the platform's usefulness.

I keep wondering when journalists will discover that big tech is not their daddy.

@dangillmor @tchambers 🤔 ummm well actually it is. 🤷‍♂️ which sucks for all of us. Big business in general is major media’s daddy, and the second richest dude in the world owner of Tesla, SpaceX & starlink is not someone anyone in the “access media” is willing to piss off
