On December 15, 2022, nine journalists had their accounts suspended from Twitter for violating a policy on doxxing, in an event dubbed the "Thursday Night Massacre".[1][2] The journalists, who covered the social media company and its owner, Elon Musk, were all suspended without warning. This included reporters Keith Olbermann, Steven L. Herman, and Donie O'Sullivan, and journalists from The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, and The Intercept.[3][4][5][6] The suspensions were initially described as permanent,[3][4][6] but some of the accounts were reinstated the next day after Musk conducted a Twitter poll.[7][2][8]


They really believe having their Twitter account suspended for a couple days is comparable to Hitler's Night of the Long Knives. Before we know it they are going to start awarding themselves Merit Badges and Purple Hearts for going through that night.

That made me laugh.

Like calling Hannity or Maddow an investigative reporter and not a talking heads.

Serioud question: when is the last time he had a job?

That's like calling the homeless guy who camps in the woods down the block a "reporter."

The hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness is off the charts.

Most sane people view Twitter as just a message board, but journalists snd celebrities view it as essential to their lives. That’s why they’re freaking out so hard over Elon purchasing it.

He is like whack a mole, he keeps popping up at either ESPN or MSNBC.

He slithers from one to the other. I think even they are tired of his act as his appearances seem to be getting less and less.

I remember how little I thought of Journalism majors. They're the ones I'd run into on rare occasion on campus at LSU. "What's your major?"
"Journalism."
"Ohhhh... that's... well, that's special!"
Smile politely, pat them on the head, and start to consider the possibility that they have a program to let special ed kids into LSU.

Nobody will hire him, but they’re still calling Olbermann a reporter.
