Several journalists across various publications have found themselves unable to access their Twitter accounts tonight. They’ve been suspended on the website, and according to NBC News<\/em> Senior Reporter Ben Collins, one thing they had in common was that they covered the social network and Elon Musk, who once described himself as a “free speech absolutist.” Collins listed the suspended journalists’<\/a> accounts on a Twitter thread, including CNN’s<\/em>Donie O’Sullivan<\/a> whose last tweets included his interview with Jack Sweeney, the college student who ran the @ElonJet account.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Washington Post’s <\/em>Drew Harwell has been suspended following a tweet<\/a> about how Twitter suspended Mastodon, its rival social network that’s been gaining popularity since Musk took over. The New York Times’<\/em>Ryan Mac<\/a> lost access to his account after talking about Sweeney and Twitter’s policy changes following @ElonJet’s suspension. Mashable’s<\/em>Matt Binder<\/a> also found himself suspended after retweeting a post doubting Musk’s claim that he and his son were followed by a “crazy stalker” and another about how Twitter’s new head of trust and safety invited a QAnon-adjacent group to discuss a partnership.\u00a0<\/p>\n
