The media worked hard to bury the FTX scandal
- The gravediggers hardly had begun to return their shovels to the cemetery shed when there appeared a new story that needed burying
- Elon Musk and Matt Taibbi just opened up another crack in the door revealing how outsiders along with the DNC manipulated Twitter in the runup to the election
- Twitter staff and executives used barriers designed to combat spam and fraud to manipulate speech that was neither
- Even worse, outsiders, including the DNC with connections to these insiders, used these tools to control what people could post and viewers could read, even going so far as to censor items transmitted on the direct message (private person-to-person) feature of the site
- In effect, well-connected private parties (almost exclusively Democrat) could and did remove posters
