Twitter Files Part 10: Trump, Biden White Houses leaned on tech giant to moderate content during COVID
Fox News
The latest Twitter Files shared by independent writer David Zweig allege both the Trump and Biden administrations leaned on tech companies to curb content during COVID.
"Internal files at Twitter that I viewed while on assignment for @thefp showed that both the Trump and Biden administrations directly pressed Twitter executives to moderate the platform’s pandemic content according to their wishes," Zweig wrote. Joseph A. Wulfsohn is a media reporter for Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to joseph.wulfsohn@fox.com and on Twitter: @JosephWulfsohn.
Citing Twitter's "meeting notes" with the Trump administration, one name-dropped then-White House Chief Technology Officer Michael Kratsios, who "led the Trump administration's calls for help from the tech companies to combat misinformation."
"Areas of focus included conspiracies around 5G cell towers, runs on grocery stores, and misinformation that could stoke panic buying and behaviors," the memo read, according to Zweig.
