Elon Musk Has One Answer for Journalists Looking for Problems on Twitter, & They Don’t Like It

Twitter has been attacked by journalists looking for problems since it was bought by Elon Musk. Now, in response to requests to the press service of the platform, they will receive an automatic response in the form of a poop emoji.

Unfortunately, these days, the media have earned fame not for finding the truth and publishing it, but for provocations, spreading false information, speculation based on unconfirmed rumors, etc. Elon Musk, who often does not choose careful words to express his opinion about everything, has become one of their main targets. On the one hand, by publishing negative content about him and his companies, journalists can express their crappy attitude toward him; on the other hand, articles written about Musk and his companies in most cases generate a lot of attention, which brings popularity.

After Musk bought Twitter, journalists wrote hundreds of articles predicting the collapse of the platform, accusing him of destroying it. Some of them not only expressed their opinions but also created and disseminated deliberately false messages about what was happening inside the company, creating a negative public attitude towards Musk and Twitter.

While Musk continues to improve Twitter, shed light on the truth the platform has been hiding under its previous management, and will soon even open up the source code for Twitter recommendations, journalists continue to look for only negative information while ignoring positive coverage. They continue to send requests to the press service of the platform for comments, but many of them are intended to create only negative coverage.

Due to the current situation, Twitter decided to respond to all requests sent to the company. However, all answers will be the same. According to Musk, “press@twitter.com now auto responds with 💩.” Numerous tests by Twitter users have confirmed receipt of an auto-reply from the platform, and it was exactly as Musk said.

While this amused many users of the platform, the journalists were very unhappy. On Monday, numerous publications published articles condemning Musk’s decision, and once again confirmed that they have only a negative attitude towards the platform and its new owner.
