Substack writer Matt Taibbi reported on the third installment of the 'Twitter Files' that revealed what led to the removal of former President Trump from the platform.
Fox News host Trace Gallagher provides insight on the release of bombshell reports exposing Twitter's censorship of conservatives on 'Special Report.'Twitter Files delved into what led to the removal of former President Trump's account.
TWITTER FILES FLASHBACK: JACK DORSEY TESTIFIED UNDER OATH TWITTER DOES NOT CENSOR, ‘SHADOW-BAN’ CONSERVATIVES After alluding to the second installment of the Twitter Files that addressed the shadowbanning of conservatives, Taibbi reported,"As the election approached, senior executives – perhaps under pressure from federal agencies, with whom they met more as time progressed – increasingly struggled with rules, and began to speak of 'vios' as pretexts to do what they’d likely have done anyway.
Taibbi then turned to correspondence involving Twitter's policy director Nick Pickles with one employee asking him if Twitter should say it"detects ‘misinfo’ through ‘ML, human review, and **partnerships with outside experts?*’ adding,"I know that’s been a slippery process… not sure if you want our public explanation to hang on that."
Taibbi shared another message, explaining,"Here, the FBI sends reports about a pair of tweets," one from Twitter user John Basham claiming"Between 2% and 25% of Ballots by Mail are Being Rejected for Errors." This led to internal discussions with one Twitter employee saying"I agree it’s a joke… but he’s also literally admitting in a tweet a crime."
Just days before the election, a tweet Trump made that read"Big problems and discrepancies with Mail In Ballots all over the USA," was"visibility filtered" so that no one could like or share the tweet. Twitter decided to go with"soft intervention" with Roth concerned about"wah wah censorship" backlash, according to released discussions.
In another example, an October 2020 tweet from former Attorney General Eric Holder claimed the Postal Service was being"deliberately crippled" by the Trump administration. It was initially hit with a warning label, which Roth asked to reverse. He highlighted an example where Twitter moderators added a"bot" to a Trump claim made on Breitbart which would be"invisibly watching" both Trump and Breitbart.
Taibbi shed light on the"panic" that erupted internally on Jan. 6. In one exchange Roth is shown executing the"bouncing" of Trump's account. Taibbi foreshadowed of parts two and three of the Jan. 6-centric Twitter Files. On Saturday, journalist Michael Shellenberger will report on how Twitter internally contemplated the fluid changes that were made to its policies. On Sunday, Taibbi teased that The Free Press editor Bari Weiss will report on the"plaudits" Twitter received from"'our partners' in Washington," referring to government agencies.
She reported that Fox News host Dan Bongino was placed on a"Search Blacklist" and Twitter had Turning Point USA's Charlie Kirk on"Do Not Amplify." While revealing internal discussions over how to explain Twitter's suppression of the Hunter Biden laptop story, Baker told his colleagues,"I support the conclusion that we need more facts to assess whether the materials were hacked" but added"it's reasonable for us to assume that they may have been and that caution is warranted."
