CNN — For days, Twitter owner Elon Musk had teased a massive bombshell disclosure based on internal company documents that he claimed would reveal “what really happened” inside Twitter when it decided to temporarily suppress a 2020 New York Post story about Hunter Biden and his laptop.
But on Friday, instead of releasing a trove of documents to the public, Musk’s big reveal pointed to a series of tweets by the journalist Matt Taibbi, who had been provided with emails that largely corroborated what was already known about the incident.
Attracting thousands of retweets, Taibbi’s winding tweet thread reaffirmed how, in the initial hours after the Post story went live, Twitter employees grappled with fears that it could have been the result of a Russian hacking operation.
It showed employees on Twitter’s legal, policy and communications teams debating – and at times disagreeing – over whether to restrict the article under the company’s hacked materials policy, weeks before the 2020 election, where Joe Biden, Hunter Biden’s father, ran against then-President Donald Trump.
While some questioned the basis for the decision and warned that Twitter would be inviting allegations of anti-conservative bias, others within the company, including senior officials, said the circumstances surrounding the Post story were unclear and recommended caution, according to screenshots of internal communications shared by Taibbi.

Okay.
/debate
Has CNN written anything about - the Hunter Biden story?
LoL. “Debated”.
People are gonna get lubed up over this, “we got em now”, they’ll cry, but it’s going to come to nothing, there’s no legal remedy here, no judge will touch any of this. It’s a NOTHING BURGER WITH CHEESE.
Now we know the spin; it’s exactly what we expected.
You're right that no dramatic direct response is going to happen, but anytime truth is revealed and what was opaque becomes more transparent there is a benefit.
What Hunter Biden Story? Who is Hunter Biden?
Not sure, I think there are going to be a bunch of civil suits against DNC, congress critters etc who targeted individuals and suppressed free speech. James Wood stated he will be looking at sueing.
It’s hilarious that the traffic at Twitter is at an all time high when the new owner releases dirt that happened at the company before he bought the company.
Hunter biden is a $cum bag....Rat
Hey...it’s just rats being rats....
I think maybe FR is filled with rats too.
And what will happen now is....nothing. No democrat nor the party itself, let alone any of the useful idiot voters, will be punished in anyway.
Wish he would,release twitters collusion with the gov to suppress info,on ivermectin, or other alternatives to vaccines too
Look at this, in the 2020 debate Trump brought up the laptop and he was constantly interrupted by the “moderator” while Biden was allowed to lie and blame it all on a “Russia plant”...........

Or we may see ads on TV “ we’re you blocked on Face Book, Twitter,You Tube? Call Dewey, Cheatum, And Howe 1-800- but- hurt”
Indeed the MSM needs a emblem of their own also.
