Ace reporter Aaron Rupar claims that Elon Musk is 'totally blocking links' to unflattering stories

Blocking links to unflattering stories? That was Twitter 1.0 and the Hunter Biden laptop story, but we haven’t heard many apologies for that one. Now Twitter is owned by Elon Musk, who reportedly threatened to assign the @NPR handle to another company seeing as NPR had pledged to pull its 50+ accounts from the social media network in response to being labeled government-funded media. Why would NPR care?

NPR tech reporter, who’s still using the service to get clicks on his stories, has the scoop:

Allyn even posted the entire story on Twitter, “since, for some reason, the story appears to be blocked on here.”

Ace reporter Aaron Rupar was on the story immediately, tweeting that “Musk is now totally blocking links to unflattering stories, such as the one below. Very normal behavior.”

Posting stories without fact-checking them is very normal behavior for Rupar.

Also getting in on the action was Daily Beast senior media reporter Justin Baragona, who tweeted, “Just to show how truly petty Elon Musk is, you can’t open this link to the NPR story on this site.”

Oops.

It gets cut off, but here’s Judd Legum’s take: “Musk claims to be a ‘free speech absolutist’ but he is currently blocking links on Twitter to this NPR article which describes how Musk threatened to give NPR’s Twitter handle to someone else if NPR didn’t start tweeting again. I’m posting screenshots so it can circulate.”

You’ll remember Legum was furious when Community Notes added context to his “100% ACCURATE TWEET.”

No one paid him to.
