X, the social media platform owned by Trump megadonor Elon Musk, is promoting Trump campaign-curated content to all U.S. users, regardless of whether they have opted out of Trump-related content.
On the platform formerly known as Twitter, banner ads for the Trump campaign donning the #Trump2024 tag appear for all U.S. users, even those who’ve blocked words, topics, and hashtags related to the candidate or his campaign or muted the advertiser.
Additionally, the #MAGA tag displays an edited image of the former president from his attempted assassination and the #Trump2024 hashtag displays an American flag.
It is unclear whether the Trump campaign paid for the images on the #Trump2024 and #MAGA tags, though an advertisement for the tag on the site’s trending page reads “Promoted by Team Trump.” As Mashable noted, it is the first time the platform has enabled the image feature to promote a specific political candidate.
Clicking the Trump2024 tag also prompts American flag graphics to flood the screen.
What platform are journalists supposed to be using when almost all of them seem to be biased?
Any platform that doesn’t openly advertise (and have an owner who openly donates to the campaign of) one particular candidate. I would not expect to find any self respecting journalist to have an account on Truth Social for instance. Being on either platform directly contributes to the election campaign of Donald Trump.
Which platform would that be? I am not trying to be difficult, but I think probably all platforms are heavily biased.
X/Twitter
Then why dont you like it?
Idk I think there are probably a lot of journalists who qt least go truth social, to study and report on what the most right wing groups are doing.
