Freakin' crybabies! They can sure the fuck dish it out, but they cannot take it, at all.

Triggered by Musk, CBS News announces it’s suspending all Twitter activity out of ‘abundance of caution’

And the rest of your phony kind can follow you- NBC et al.
quote:
NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck blasted the outlet, tweeting, "Pure idiocy from CBS News. Don't whine then about why people don't trust you when they can't find you in the 21st century's public square."

He added, "CBS News quitting Twitter because they think @ElonMusk will allow hackers or something into their accounts is so weak. This is so stupid my head hurts."

Journalist Timothy Burke tweeted, "I'm told this applies to all CBS-owned properties. CBS News previously announced tonight it would no longer be active on Twitter (using this identical language)."

The Spectator contributing editor Stephen L. Miller criticized the network, writing, "Twitter does not belong to CBS news and they are going to learn this in a very hard way."

Conservative content creator Viva Frei celebrated the CBS Twitter pause, tweeting, "Not only is @elonmusk trying to revive free speech on Twitter, but he’s also successfully killing fake news on Twitter! @CBSNews, good riddance to bad rubbish!"

Well, at least that'll contribute to cleaning up all of the 'mis-information/dis-information' on Twitter... Wink

CBS "News" leaving Twitter just improves Twitter.

Those phonies saw that Twitter is now fact-checking the former royalty on Twitter, and they just can't stand it. All of these frauds are terrified of the truth. Their "reporting" sure the fuck doesn't bear any resemblance to the truth and they know that sooner or later, CBS would get fact-checked and called on their bullshit. They lack the courage to face this. A level playing field?? Oh, the horror! Roll Eyes

I’m hearing that Apple and Google could pull the Twitter app “due to safety concerns” therefore basically rendering it useless for most users on mobile which is probably 3/4 of its use and killing the platform for all intents and purposes.

I wouldn’t put it past these bastards. Roll Eyes

"... out of an abundance of caution...."?

FFS, does CBS really think Musk is going to materialize out of their $8 Blue Check Mark to flog CBS employees into workingh in their offices and not plagiarizing CNN and MSNBC?

They just let President Trump back on twitter.

His page is back up.

All of his followers were wiped.

Apparently CBS lasted 21 hours on their “pause” of using the app, I noticed even the local Philly CBS affiliate CBS3 had stopped using it. Elon and others called them out on their stunt and they resumed. Losers Big Grin
