Journalist and Barry Weiss is just dropped part,
2 of the Twitter files, exposing the social media
companies secret blacklists
Ready for this one Stanford's dr. Jay who argued that covid, lockdowns would harm children, Twitter, secretly placed him on a Trends blacklist, which prevented his tweets from trending or consider the popular right-wing talk-show host, and bond Gino who at one point was slapped with a search Blacklist. On Twitter set, the account of conservative activists Charlie Kirk to do not amplify. Huh? And Twitter denied that it does such things in 2018 Twitter's then head of legal policy and trust and head of products said we do not Shadow ban, they added and we certainly don't Shadow band based on political viewpoints or ideology. Hmm. So they lied.
One senior Twitter employees said think
about visibility filtering as being a way for us
to suppress what people see, two different
levels
It's a very powerful tool more. Think about visibility filtering as being, a way for us to suppress. Yes, we had that one. All right, let's bring in Fox Business. Reporter Kelly, O'Grady who's been following this story as it unfolds. So, a secret Blacklist that they lied about Kelly. What is happening here? I know. It's so interesting. Adjusting, of course, leave it to Elon Musk to keep us all held hostage on a Thursday evening like he did for Last Friday, but I think it's interesting. You got to remember that part. One was Rife with controversy after it came out that the FBI's former general counsel was wedding that. So the fact that this is now coming out and we're finding that shadow Banning was actually a thing and that they called it, what was it? The the visibility I have visibility filtering. Yeah, it kind of sounds like, you know, social distancing like you come up with the name, you know, to make it all seem palatable. But yeah, I mean this is ongoing right now so they're tweeting it out in the exact same thread like last week. We buy tweet.
So more coming in but I think we can expect to see a lot of topics and people that have been Shadow band or filtered if you will bungee. No is just on Prime Time and Charlie was just on a couple weeks ago. So Dan mangy know is Enemy. Number One, they suppress him a shadow bandim and then they lied about it Dan I guess is just too powerful too annoying to the Liberals at Twitter. I can't make sense of it. I'm sure. Dan is going to have something to say about this. This on his weekend show at 9:00 on Saturdays. Oh, definitely. I'm sure, I'm sure he'll have something to say on Twitter momentarily. I always loved reading reading his tweets but I think for me what's really, you know, interesting about this and concerning is that okay? Yeah, you know, your were joking. Damn, bungee, no has been censored but he has a very prolific audience. Sure does work. What about the people? You know like friends and family right? That tweet about certain ideas. About their concerns about the vaccine or about, you know, elections different topics that are important to them, you know, maybe their tweets have been suppressed as well. And so, I think that flies in the face of what Twitter was trying to do, what was intended to do, as a platform to encourage public discourse and not only that, they were suppressing posts from medical doctors who had legitimate opinions about The threat that covid did or didn't play towards children and those legitimate concerns were suppressed. I mean, that is a huge, huge problem in this country. That that was not allowed to be read Kelly. Thank you so much for following the story with us.
