Chaos reigns at Twitter as Musk manages 'by whims'
NPRChaos reigns at Twitter as Musk manages 'by whims' TERRY GROSS, HOST: This is FRESH AIR. GROSS: So in terms of whether Twitter may now be reflecting Elon Musk's politics, Musk re-platformed over 60,000 people including Donald Trump, who used Twitter to, you know, say mistruths, disinformation. And what I think that Musk and some of these other, like, right-wing platform commentators are missing is that there's a real market demand for this kind of basic content moderation, you know? You know, at the same time, Twitter's, like, rules - you know, every platform sets rules for what you can and can't do on the platform. You know, I think even if Elon Musk had not taken over the company, Twitter probably would have undergone some pretty significant layoffs this year.
