If you check out the New York Post’s Twitter feed, you’ll see the most recent post is from Wednesday, Oct. 14. It’s Saturday, and deputy politics editor Emma-Jo Morris is letting us know it’s now Day 3 of @nypost being unable to tweet.
The Daily Mail reports that Twitter told the Post to delete six links to its Hunter Biden email story:
A Twitter representative told the newspaper that while the site has lifted restrictions that banned users from circulating the link to the Biden story, the Post is still required to remove the tweets so that it could use its account.
“While we’ve updated the policy, we don’t change enforcement retroactively,” a Twitter rep told the Post on Friday in an email.
So is Twitter maintaining that the Post was circulating information gleaned from a “hacked” source?
They even shut down the official House Judiciary Republicans account as well as the personal account of White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany.
He apologized for communicating the reason for the URL block so poorly, but he never promised to remove it.
