If you don’t think misinformation that caused significant differences in Covid death rates between liberals and conservatives dangerous, or don’t think misinformation that undermines our democracy dangerous, or misinformation that endangers teachers and school board members dangerous, then you probably have “conservative views”.


If you don’t think leftists label things they don’t like as misinformation or hate then you might have “leftist views”.

Actual misinformation from those in power or in control of various media platforms is a problem especially when controlled by one side, so having more avenues in old and new media that aren’t controlled by the left or liberals is a good thing for democracy and marketing.

Elon thought he could just buy a regime mouthpiece.

You cannot just buy a piece of the Cathedral.

Sorry, I have a life and was spending it with my family... and not all over TD on a Saturday

P.S: that list was super easy to find, like, a simple DuckDuckGo search easy, first result, easy. Learn to find things on the internet instead of just taking TD's word on it

ETA: another big part of this study was that it did not take into account bot accounts which we know where a huge part of Twitter, which is probably a reason why internal information I'm seeing is that twitter is dropping on this list as of late (they are losing bots thanks to Elon)

It’s a little hard to read the fine print on my phone, but this looks like monthly active users not daily traffic. Does it state how it defines the active part of active users?

Doesn't the ad agency lose a shite ton of money if 5000 clients stop advertising?


They would likely just divert the spend to other channels or partners. And the days of media agencies charging a fee that’sa percentage of the plan amount are long gone. That said that memo is ridiculous. So because a different perspective is now represented it’s dangerous? Wow.

Except ...advertisers are pulling dollars from those companies since Apple gave users the ability to opt out of ad targeting.


Those users will still see the same amount of ads, they’ll just be less relevant. I would know, I work in the industry.

He was backed by a lot of Saudi money who would love to sink Twitter. You have to wonder if they aren't covering some of his losses in a backroom deal.


Now do TikTok. And the President.

This is active user figures, they get the monthly data by daily data, it's pointless to use daily data when you are talking R&D, it's all about the average.

Yes:

1) Company Released Activity (this is the portion that can be over-inflated due to bots)
2) The Site's Self Service Advertising Resource
3) Media Polaris (I believe this is Hootsuite's proprietary Research Tool)

This data is curated by Hootsuite who is one of the leading researchers in information like this.

I was as well for over 20yrs. After covid I became self employed.

Are you with an agency or a specific medium?

I’m self employed as well. I work with publishers in the content arbitrage space. I’m looking to move on from this space and possibly go to a trading desk. Haven’t decided just yet

Who do you work for now that you are self employed?
