Wait, you can do that @twitter? Doesn’t violate all kinds of free speech laws? https://t.co/YTGfV6sG0e

Wow censorship attempt by @CNN over @ShaunKing declining to be on @donlemon deserves full #BlackTwitter backlash https://t.co/3W8WA7kQRW

Shaun King can’t believe this “madness” interrupting his haircut!

Wonder what he did that would prompt CNN to take action with Twitter.
What did you say about Mr. Lemon? @ShaunKing @CNN
— ACE Boogie (@VitaminD_J) November 4, 2015
@ShaunKing @CNN ooooh. What did it say???
— revjimbo (@jbonewald) November 4, 2015
.@ShaunKing @CNN what was the content of the tweet? Screenshot?

@ShaunKing what did you say in the Tweet?
— Rupert J Zoldyck (@swiftkck2urdome) November 4, 2015
@ShaunKing @CNN wtf? What did it say?
— Petty Lardashian (@corlitante) November 4, 2015
Well, he did complain about Don Lemon in his tweet … but there was also this:
@ShaunKing @CNN Is this because the CNN producer's name and contact was still on the tweet?
— Jefe (@CheFwee) November 4, 2015
@ShaunKing Was it because the producer's phone number wasn't blurred?
— Luna (@LunaCee73) November 4, 2015
.@ShaunKing Hey, I don’t know, here’s a thought: Maybe redact her phone number and email address? @CNN @donlemon
— T. Becket Adams (@BecketAdams) November 4, 2015
@GPollowitz He posted an e-mail from a CNN producer that included a bunch of her info (phone, e-mail, address, etc.) w/o redacting it.
— Sean Davis (@seanmdav) November 4, 2015
@GPollowitz I think he's being disingenuous. Pretty obvious he posted personal info, CNN reported him for it, he got busted.

Here’s a screenshot of the tweet in question (with personal information redacted):

So maybe it wasn’t what you said about Don, Shaun. Have you considered that possibility?

@seanmdav That tweet appears to have been deleted. @GPollowitz
— T. Becket Adams (@BecketAdams) November 4, 2015
Deleted, but not forgotten. Despite the fact that King conveniently doesn’t address it in subsequent tweets.

Are we supposed to feel bad for Shaun that there are consequences for posting someone’s contact information without her consent?
Shaun King's account got locked for doxing. Don't let that tool tell you otherwise.

@neontaster @JustinRWalton accidental or not doesn't change the outcome, and I call bullshit on accident. his info wasn't in the pic was it?
— Eazy-Steve (@jimmystevens506) November 4, 2015
@jimmystevens506 hmm, I don't remember. That's a good point though. Twitter was right to suspend him until fixed, of course. @neontaster
— Justin Walton (@JustinRWalton) November 4, 2015
Well, in any event, at least Shaun’s sorry for what he did:
