The Guardian’s Announcement That It Will Never Post On Elon Musk’s X Again The British media “The Guardian” has announced that it will not post news on Elon Musk’s social network X. The Guardian has announced that it will not post any posts on other social networks including X on Monday.
“We have stopped posting on X from our verified editorial account. However, X users will be able to share our reports,” The Guardian said.
The newspaper said that they will not post on X forever because there is more negativity in X, known as Twitter. Explaining the reason for this move, The Guardian further wrote, “We think that the negativity in ‘X’ has increased a lot at the moment. We can better utilize the resources to further promote our journalism.”
The magazine has mentioned that it has been thinking about stopping posting on X for a long time. The newspaper said that the decision was taken to stop posting news on this medium, especially since problematic content is appearing frequently in ‘X’. It also contains material related to extreme right-wing propaganda and racism.
Although The Guardian does not post on X, X users can share Guardian news. In addition, Guardian journalists will be able to use X for news gathering. Currently, Guardian has kept the X account as an archive account. That is, you can see all the previously posted content.
Among the social networks Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and X, Guardian has the most followers on X. However, after the announcement of not posting on X, Guardian’s followers from that platform are gradually decreasing.
Currently, Xma Guardian has more than 18 million followers. Guardian has 8.9 million followers on Facebook, 5.8 million followers on Instagram and more than 4.5 million followers on TikTok.
