Musk suspends Twitter accounts of several prominent journalists

Twitter CEO Elon Musk has suspended accounts of several prominent journalists on the micro-blogging platform, including Donie O’Sullivan from CNN and Drew Harwell from The Washington Post as they covered the “exact real-time location” of Musk.

When a Twitter user posted screenshots of suspended accounts of some journalists, Musk said on Friday: “Same doxxing rules apply to journalists as to everyone else.

The user’s post also included journalists Ryan Mac from The New York Times and Aaron Rupar from Independent.

Several users expressed their thoughts on Musk’s tweet.
