Some guy in my replies got bent out of shape that I made the case that journalists still need to be aware of what’s happening on Twitter, and when I tried to explain to him how journalism works, he slowly showed himself to not understand the process. Then he blocked me.
This is what the profession is up against.
As I was having this debate with this guy I reshared a post about how Chad Loder, a researcher on far-right propaganda, was removed from Twitter by Elon Musk, personally.
Tell me again how this is about follower count
@ernie
From this out-of-context bit, it kinda looks like you were defending being aware of what's happening on Twitter, and they were attacking having/using Twitter accounts. Those are different things?
@ceoln I told the guy not to attack people for simply having a presence there and using it as they might be required to have one due to their jobs
@ceoln I would argue yes
