NYT & WaPo reporters 'digitally crap their pants' in Twitter space over Musk buying Twitter (thread)

Media are worried Elon Musk will actually protect free speech. Think about that for a minute.

It was bad enough for WAPo’s Taylor Lorenz to proclaim Musk taking over Twitter was like the ‘gates of Hell opening,’ but thinking about a bunch of firefighters … sorry … ‘journalists’ from the New York Times and the Washington Post gathering for a Twitter circle aka ‘safe space’ with one another takes the idea of melting down to a WHOLE new level.

What do they think is really going to happen?

C’mon.

Look at this thread …

Terrified of posting in Slack?

Really?

What is wrong with these people? Ya’ know what it is? Biden and the Democrats spending years now telling people that the Right is dangerous and WILL TAKE THEIR DEMOCRACY. We make fun of the media carrying water for the Democrats but maybe they actually believe all of the nonsense now.

Yikes.

Like the Joker taking over Arkham Asylum and releasing all of the supervillains.

Holy cow, they’re broken.

… they worked really hard on this app.

Did they really?

Digitally crapping their pants may well be our new favorite phrase when it comes to media freakouts.

And if things go the way we HOPE AND PRAY they will in the next two weeks we’ll get to use that phrase more and more.
