Cleaning Up Twitter | City Journal
However clouded Twitter s future may be at this point, Elon Musk has accomplished a seismic shift in the media world by exposing the old regime s left-leaning roots and its propensity for covert censorship. If both faults can be remedied, the new Twitter has at least a shot at becoming a global forum for neutrally moderated free speech and discussion.
Twitter s censorship apparatus has come to light because Musk released files for analysis to independent journalists Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss, and Michael Shellenberger. Their findings, which do not make for pleasant reading, outline a range of suppressive activities that the new Twitter will presumably avoid in future.
