Elon Musk has purchased Twitter and today many employees are being laid off. The media can of course be counted on to provide as many “WTF” moments of journalism as possible.

And yet it is:

Could Reuters maybe put live cams at certain areas at the border, or no?
This is weird. What, are you waiting for jumpers? Strange tweet and video.

This reminds me of one of my favorite things that happened on social media during the Trump years: the live feed of Sean Spicer’s house the day he resigned/was fired. https://t.co/cmllM6N6Qg

Is it too late for somebody to go troll the media again?

Oh the humanity!
Apparently the video didn’t really capture much action, and perhaps there’s a reason for that:
Weren’t workers told not to come in today? So just a live shot of an empty building…

Didn't they say the offices were closed, badges were disabled and there's no one there?

Reuters even reported that yesterday, but then nevertheless still had a live camera outside Twitter HQ today:
Twitter layoffs will begin on Friday, the company said in an email to staff, adding that its offices will be temporarily closed and all badge access will be suspended 'to help ensure the safety of each employee as well as Twitter systems and customer data' https://t.co/IsWjQ3FoVj
