Twitter is ranking #15 in social networks, but all the journalists are on it so it's all you hear about. The media (specifically, TV) chose to prop up twitter, and they can bring it down too.
It's newsworthy. It's a leading social network which a billionaire was forced to purchase after trying to weasel himself out of the deal which he got into for dubious reasons, and now said billionaire is doing a corporate anihialation speedrun that threatens to evaporate 45 billion dollars.
Not to mention the impact on other notorious companies such as Tesla and SpaceX.
You require a massively disingenuous take on current events to come up to the conclusion that news coverage of Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter can only be explained in terms of irrational hate.
