It happened for a few hours when the story was flagged as hacked materials (just like they’d do for, say, someone’s non-consensual nudes). Twitter did that on their own and removed it shortly later after their internal discussion agreed that it wasn’t a violation (they took down the tweets reposting actual nudes, not the media coverage).

Sorry, wasn’t NY Post suspended on Twitter for almost two weeks?
The impact wasn’t just for a few hours and the final acknowledgement of validity of those files came long after the election.
This is textbook gaslighting.0

I feel like the memory of democracy nowadays is exactly 18 hours long.
