Caitlyn Jenner Baseless Claims Twitter ‘Darkness Forbidden’ She Joins Fox News

Unsuccessful GOP gubernatorial candidate Caitlyn Jenner accused Twitter on Thursday, without any corroborating evidence, of banning her because she was hired as an expert by Fox News.

What’s more, she called on billionaire Edgelord Elon Musk to take over the social media giant “wake up” while constantly being savvy about “how her engagement has gone down dramatically”.

Late last month, and amid growing criticism of Fox News for its increasingly hostile anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, the network announced that it had hired Jenner. “She is a pioneer in the LGBTQ+ community,” announced Fox News CEO Suzanne Scott of the Olympic champion. However, Jenner assured viewers in her first appearance as a network contributor that she is not a “transgender activist”.

Appears on US Report On Thursday, to discuss Musk’s $43 billion takeover offer of Twitter, Jenner was asked by co-manager John Roberts about the Tesla founder’s assertion that he wanted to “fix “the platform is “broken”.

Jenner, for her part, first wanted to talk about her own Twitter following.

“I love Elon Musk, I agree with him 100%,” she replied. “You know, I love Twitter. I have used it for many years. My family has been really involved with Twitter since the beginning and has helped build the platform. ”Jenner continued:“ I entered in 2015 and broke the world record — I got the Guinness Book of World Records — fastest ever with a million followers. I did it in four hours and two minutes! After saying that she likes to use Twitter to “really spark the conversation,” Jenner then relied on a right-wing rumor that the platform was secretly censoring her because of her conservatism. she.

Of course, she offers no evidence other than pure vibes.

“And then two weeks ago, guess what? I was on Fox News and guess what happened? I got banned on Twitter! “My participation has gone down dramatically and I’m in complete shock.” Jenner exclaimed.

She went on to say that Twitter and other companies like Disney – the latest conservative – have become captive to “the employees who woke up to this waking moment that we have there.” It didn’t take long for Jenner to once again complain about the drop in her likes and mentions.

“I was banned from the ball. My reach is much worse today,” she grumbled without giving any proof again. “I hope Elon Musk comes here and changes this. Because these waking companies won’t survive, I don’t think, in the future.”

Co-anchor Gillian Turner later pointed out that despite the “great possibility” that a self-described “free speech champion” could be in charge of a social media platform, “all of them are in charge of a social media platform.” All decisions are made by algorithms.” Ironically and despite the objections of conservatives, Twitter’s own research has shown that its algorithms actually favor right-leaning views and content.

“It’s not Elon Musk going to sit there making decisions, you know, himself when it comes to what stays and what goes on the platform,” Turner added. “Do you really think ownership can make the huge, necessary, difference you know? Can the system be overhauled? “Jenner, meanwhile, seems preoccupied with the belief that working for Fox News could affect her celebrity television opportunities elsewhere.

“I certainly hope so. I go after 100% freedom of speech,” she replied. “You know what I do, I do See a lot, and now that – I don’t think I’ll do that in the future, but obviously I’m what I consider a common sense conservative. But I do See. Why do I do that? I love a good debate.”
