Time for an up to date thread on the doings of Elon Musk. Let's tart with this
"Executives from Facebook and Twitter, including the recently-fired head of trust & safety Vijaya Gadde, held regular meetings with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to discuss censorship on a wide range of topics, including the withdrawal from Afghanistan, coronavirus, and “racial justice,” according to leaked documents.
The information came to light via leaks to the Intercept, as well as documents and minutes revealed through Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s lawsuit filed against the Biden Administration that alleges government collusion with Big Tech to suppress Americans’ First Amendment rights."

You live in a fascinating world. Your sources can choose to hide important stories from you and you are fine with their censorship.
Remember when National Enquirer had the story about US Senator Gary Hart having an affair? AP would have happily kept you in the dark because he had a (D) at the end of his name.

AHEM....The National Enquirer openly acknowledges that it pays sources for tips, a common practice in tabloid journalism that results in conflicts of interest.[4] It has also been embroiled in several controversies related to its catch and kill practices and allegations of blackmail. It has struggled with declining circulation figures because of competition from other glossy tabloid publications.
During the Kennedy and Franklin Roosevelt administration's, the press would turn a blind eye to their affairs. They even refused to post pictures of FDR in a wheelchair or using canes.
Do we want media protecting our politicians by covering up for them? Especially the politicians of only one party?

Come on, Fred. Breitbart is about as reputable as the Enquirer. They are rarely correct and often print rumors & misinformation tailored to enrage the conservative base.

So you think none of this happened because your sources refuse to report on it?

If your blinders do not allow you to read the brietbart.com article perhaps they will allow you to visit the Intercept.com, from which the information was gleaned. The Intercept.com is rated as a reliably left wing site.
