Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Democracy Now!

“A Toxic Media Platform”: The Guardian Stops Posting on X, Citing Elon Musk’s Influence

HeadlineNov 14, 2024

In media news, The Guardian announced it will no longer post their content on X, formerly known as Twitter, though X users will still be able to share Guardian articles from the platform. The Guardian writes, “The US presidential election campaign served only to underline what we have considered for a long time: that X is a toxic media platform and that its owner, Elon Musk, has been able to use its influence to shape political discourse.”
