So where is the letter you implied exists threatening to cut off finances to advertisers who won’t leave?

To quote you "We see you are platforming X, it would be a shame if (financial services supporting you) got wind of it."

Got a letter? Even a hint of this? No? Perhaps MM should be suing you.

David Brock is a name I haven't heard in a while. He is an evil man that just so happens to be friends with sex pests and pedos. He's also the person you can thank for much of the polarization of politics and the censoring of social media. Oh, and the spam bots. Fuck this guy so hard.

Fun fact: David Brock was the guy spearheading/leading the right wing media campaign against the Clintons and in particular, created the whole "Clintons killed Vince Foster" chestnut and kept pushing and pushing the Whitewater meme in the 90s, to the degree that Clinton Derangement Syndrome was his own actual creation and the impeachment of Bill his baby.

Urban legends has it that the Clintons DESPISED David Brooks for how he was able to make their lives living hell, but at the same time respected his game as a smear merchant supreme. So much so that when the Clintons found dirt on David, that he was a faggot, that they made him a deal: abandon and repudiate the right and start working for the Clintons/DNC or we'll out you and you'll be blackballed by the GOP/far right.

Brock took the deal (since the Clintons/DNC were willing to pay him handsomely to be THEIR personal smear merchant) but in the process of publicly denouncing the GOP/the right/all of his far right friends, came out of the closet to basically negate the blackmail the Clintons had on him in the process of his turning Judas. And ironically, to his credit as a monster, Brock never once betrayed the Clintons and the left after switching sides.

There's no place for him on the right any more after what he did. So it's the left for him from now on, but his own personal aggrandizement is all this faggot cares about.

If you're cheering for Musk here, you're ultimately damning Kiwi Farms, because if he gets a favorable verdict here it will destroy any free speech protections Null has. You do not want there to be civil penalties against people telling the truth about someone (and Musk's complaint admits that Media Matters told the truth about the ads). And if there are civil penalties for telling the truth about something because of tortious interference, every lolcow who can no longer find a job is going to be suing this forum. This freedom of speech thing cuts both ways, you know? If you only like it for people you agree with, you're retarded.

TI is completely different from all of the issues with all of the allegations against the KF. Now, LFJs actions against KF in regards to A 3RD PARTY MEMBER such as when he has "girl talks" with ISP providers or their wives, is a case of TI, in my opinion. In laymans terms, this isn't a free-speech issue when it comes to ACTIVELY AND KNOWINGLY creating false statements to purposely harm and/or defame a company. Now, in this situation, if the "antisemitic/Nazi" content was indeed truly on Twitter and not fabricated, then it would be up to the lawyers to start arguing their case over whether they manipulated the algorithm, and if so, how much, to get their desired results, and if that manipulation could be construed as TI.

TI CAN'T be argued when there is a DIRECT ISSUE BETWEEN 2 PARTIES. That would usually be a defamation lawsuit. In the case of KiwiFarms, we are in Clownworld, but legally speaking, Null is afforded protection under Section 230 for all of us to sperg about Keffals, LFJ and all the others to our hearts content. His only obligation is to make sure that we don't move to actual abusive threats or post CP or other illegal content.

Now, if Null were to put up a billboard in Times Square alleging that Keffals is a pedo who jerks off to MLP while high on PCP, that wouldn't surprise me would be a good case for DEFAMATION OF CHARACTER/LIBEL. If, instead, he were to  NOT put up a billboard, but instead spread that rumor around via emails, videos, MATI streams, etc and took it to the CEO of Pepsi-Frito Lay, and caused Keffals to miss out on a lucrative Mountain Dew and Cheetos sponsorship, then THAT could be considered Tortious Interference.

TI is completely different from Null's issues The real issue will be whether or not it even gets past a motion to dismiss and into discovery, though, because that has a high likelihood of being very damaging to MMFA. If it gets in front of a jury, their financial burn rate will be exorbitant.

I think this is the outcome that Elon is banking on. He seems like he's petty enough to draw it out just out of spite, because of anyone, he's obviously not worried about funds running low on any sort of LOL-suit or other legal proceedings. I've said from day one that my wish would be for him to take a sledgehammer to the server rooms of Twitter and then set it all on fire, but letting it all crash down in a flurry of LOL-suits and copious coping and seething from the far left retards, while exposing NGO and government corruption at the same time, I must admit is especially kino.

This tracks with the rumors I heard back when I was still active.

For what it's worth, no one I worked with had fucking any respect for Media Matters, especially after some of the bullshit they pulled here in NY to help Hillary Clinton during her senatorial run. I think that their actions were the first time the scales fell away from some of the oldsters' eyes.

Once again, assuming my knowledge of Media Matters and how they operate is still mostly on-point, they really.... Don't have the resources needed to maintain themselves against a legal cornholing from a sufficiently well-armed company.

If this advances in any way that actually has staying power - and from the looks of it, Texas' AG is all-too-willing to help them do that - then Media Matters will absolutely run aground in terms of expenses. They'll likely do what every single organization like them does and immediately fold, then incorporate under a different banner, but that will leave them on the vine legally and, once again, I would bet a bag of Hershey's Kisses that Media Matters was taking their marching orders from the Biden Admin.

Right. There's this narrow window of "not okay"' in a sea of murky okay.

You can say "Bill Gates is conspiring to sterilize people to depopulate the planet". That's an opinion, and you'll probably be fine.

You can present proof that Bill Gates is conspiring to sterilize people to depopulate the planet, and, provided you survive the Microsoft-branded ninjas coming to kill you, you're probably also fine, because it's truth.

You can even usually get away with presenting incorrect evidence that Bill Gates is conspiring to sterilize people to depopulate the planet... Even if you were wrong, and the giant building marked "Sterilization Facility" was just a badly named building where they made anti-virus software for Windows. So long as the mistake was an honest one.

What you can't do, generally, is go to people and present false evidence that you knowingly fabricated to prove that Bill Gates is conspiring to sterilize people to depopulate the planet. That's a step too far. That is, variously, libel, slander, fraud, or possibly a couple of other things, depending on the context.

Dateline NBC once ran a huge story about General Motors, claiming the gas tanks on its pickups were defective and would catch fire more than gas tanks on other companies' pickups. Included was video of a GM pickup spectacularly exploding from a gas tank leak

Only problem was, NBC rigged the pickup with remote controlled model rocket engines attached to the gas tank. Which it turned on at the moment of impact, to make sure the thing blew up. GM sued the fuck out of them and proved the video of the pickup exploding was fake and gay. NBC settled almost immediately for an on air apology and an undisclosed sum

Thing is, GM pickup truck gas tanks of the time WERE more vulnerable to catching fire and/or exploding in a crash. Didn't matter. NBC got btfo because it manufactured evidence that made GM look bad

Same thing here with Media Matters. They manufactured evidence. It doesn't matter if Elon likes to dress up in an authentic SS uniform and peg himself with a dildo made out of a femur pulled from an Auschwitz oven while watching Hitler speeches. Media Matters made shit up. They're fucked

Here's a news segment on the story, including Dateline's mea culpa:

I still don't get this bullshit. So fucking what if an ad is shown next to spicy content? It's Twitter, people understand that the ads they see are either targeted based on what they do online or else random as fuck. Only a complete mouth breathing faggot would see a Coca Cola ad under a tweet by @HitlerWasRight_GasTheKikes_1488 and think Coca Cola has anything to do with it and not that just being what happens with a shitload of ads being shoved everywhere.

If I had a company advertising on Twitter I wouldn't give a single solitary fuck if I saw my ads appearing under a tweet openly calling for genocide against da joos. Because I know that's just how the ads work and that Twitter sometimes has shitty people and edgelord trolls. That's life, oh well. Cry at someone else.
