EDITOR'S NOTE- AS STATED MANY TIMES ON THIS SITE, ELON MUSK IS A COMPLETE FRAUD!

So-called “free speech absolutist” Elon Musk’s Twitter temporarily locked out the New York Post on Thursday, March 30, after it tweeted out a story about how the social media company deleted over 5,000 tweets.

The Post was informed that it violated one of the social media platform’s rules, preventing it from posting any tweets to its main account, which has 2.8 million followers.

Twitter’s suppression of the publication came as multiple other news outlets were reporting the very same story of the social media platform’s decision to scrub over 5,000 tweets and retweets featuring the same subject.

Bruce Golding, writing for the Post, pointed out that the censorship of the publication’s Twitter account flies in the face of Musk’s description of himself as a “free speech absolutist” who desires to turn the social media platform into a marketplace of ideas that does not censor anything.

Furthermore, Musk previously called Twitter’s crackdown on the Post in October 2020 due to its investigation into emails on Hunter Biden’s laptop “incredibly appropriate.” At the time, Twitter demanded that the Post delete at least six tweets that linked to the story, claiming the investigation is based on information obtained illegally.

Twitter eventually restored the Post‘s access to its account after 8 p.m. EST on Thursday.
