Any reporter not censored by Twitter is probably not a very good reporter.

If I was stupid enough to have a Twitter account, I would want to be permanently banned to prevent myself from using it.

Depends on what the meaning of misinformation is!

Twitter has basement factcheckers, too?

With you all the way on that!

It is scary she isn’t allowed to be wrong. The issue is twitter feels like they are the arbiters of wrong.

Thanks. The "Luciferase" one is a topic I would have stayed away from, even though I think that actually is the name of an ingredient in one of the vaccines, so named because it is what causes fireflies to glow (Lucifer = bearer of light).

Two of the others are basically true, while the other is snarky, and I would have avoided that one too. But journalists left and right are snarky all the time and don't get fired for it.

I subscribed to her substack. She’s a much better writer than I was aware of.
