‘Fox & Friends’ Reacts to Musk’s Twitter Purge, Demands Explanation

-

CEO suspended the official accounts of journalists at CNN, The New York Times and The Washington Post on Thursday night. The purge led to a significant backlash, which compelled Musk to attempt to clarify his decision in a hastily-arranged meeting with reporters.

Musk accused the reporters of “doxxing” him by tweeting or publishing stories about the Twitter chief's earlier decision to suspend an account solely dedicated to tracking his private jet.

The co-hosts of “” expressed mixed reactions to Musk's decision, with , in particular, expressing skepticism about the billionaire business magnate.

Per Mediaite:

After correspondent Kevin Corke laid out the details of the story, Doocy challenged Musk's version of things:

Co-host credited Musk because he “came out and announced it right away,” but added “I don't think it was the best move he's ever had.”

The account Musk accused of endangering his personal safety, @elonjet, was run by a 20-year-old who tracked Musk's private jet using publicly available flight information. Musk said, “Any account doxxing real-time location info of anyone will be suspended, as it is a physical safety violation. This includes posting links to sites with real-time location info.” Musk added that he had no issue with Twitter users posting his movements “on a slightly delayed basis.”

  1. The reason was both CLEAR and APPROPRIATE. Giving the exact location, in REAL TIME, of Musk is a DANGER to his life. It is NOT, like the old Twitter, censoring an opinion!!

  2. Democrats never say anything good about Republicans and will stick to a lie about them even when proved wrong. They never turn on their own. On the other hand, Republicans seem unable to resist agreeing with bad things about other conservatives. Republicans are their own worst enemy.

  4. Tell Fox to jam it. CNN, Wash Post, New York Times are enemies of a free society by printing lies, distortions, and defamation of people using free speech. And once they got help from the Federal Government, it became an issue of the Federal government by violating the First Amendment to the Constitution. Heads should roll and large payments to those who were injured. This nonsense needs to stop.
