A nice article about the Sisters

Thanks BJ. I would hope all the people who are so hateful about this organization would read it. A balanced narrative.

An article I would encourage you to read.

This link works just fine on my computer. Hope you are able to access and clear up you mistaken outlook on the Twitter Files.

I have no interest in a biased portrayal of what narrative you and the left want to perpetrate.

Perhaps this unbiased Wikipedia article will show you something true.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter_Files

And to besmirch two true journalists is ludicrous.
Bari Weiss. An honest liberal journalist formerly of the New York Times, and Matt Taibbi, a liberal journalist formerly of Rolling Stone.
This isn’t Breitbart you are dealing with here.

How sad that court filings by Twitter's own attorneys, that refute the allegations of Musk, Taibbi and Weiss...you chose to pass off as a "biased portrayal."

Do you actually think Twitter's own attorneys would lie in their characterization in court? You may truly have gone down the rabbit hole.

Of course if you just read to the very last paragraph of the Wikipedia article that you post to support how great their journalism is suppose to be, you have found this:

Aftermath

In June 2023 lawyers working for Twitter contested many of the claims made in the Twitter Files in court. According to CNN "Altogether, the filing by Musk’s own corporate lawyers represents a step-by-step refutation of some of the most explosive claims to come out of the Twitter Files and that in some cases have been promoted by Musk himself."[92]

Maybe the lawsuit and the filings are "Fake News."

I prefer this description by CBS News.
You’re just mad that Musk took your compliant media mouthpiece away.

A 6 month old story, with comments from those people....which have now been refuted by Twitter and Musk's own attorneys?
(stories change when you're in court; can't bullshit people)

OK then.

What are you trying to prove? Besmirch Musk? One of the greatest inventors of our time?
Besmirch Independent Quality Journalists? No other media source that I can find has said anything negative about Weiss, Taibbi’s and Shellenberger’s work. They even had screen shots of actual emails that backed up what they wrote.
Every other news media source seems to think it was great journalism.
And quit being amazingly naive that sources inside the Government weren’t trying to influence coverage. That stuff was shown.
Sorry you lost your convenient little narrative-shape toy.
And with the disaster that is CNN, your preferred news source, maybe we can return to a more fair and balanced media landscape.

Nice speech.
But I'm not the lawyers for Musk/Twitter in the courtroom saying the twitter files were not what Weiss, Taibbi and Musk said they were.
Take it up with the lawyers.

What are you trying to prove here?

Stop attacking the Free Press and a guy who is creating jobs and enhancing industry in this country, while going along with your BS Wash Post and CNN.
Your narrative play toy is gone.

Meanwhile in more important news:

Joe Biden’s coddling of China for “reasons” ($) has come to this. China is paying Cuba billions of dollars to establish a spy base on the island to focus on the US. Nice job Brandon!! You couldn’t shoot down spy balloons and now you have a full fledged Intelligence base 90 miles away!
What a dumpster fire this Administration is.
