those generally fall into two mutually exclusive categories: for honest people, or for red hats.
So you gotta be specific about the news outlets in question.

The Wall Street Journal has an interesting article concerning Elon Musk releasing emails concerning censorship by Twitter

WSJ hasn’t had clean hands in terms of big lie reporting. Must be the owned-by-Murdoch thing.
The fact the Muskrat let the man who would be king back on tells the tale imo.

Are you suggesting the information musk is releasing is fabricated by him?

Seems to me he's exposing how Twitter use to do business.

Was it based on censoring (not sure if that’s the right term in this situation) people who were spreading falsehoods and conspiracy theories? Asking for a friend?

Not necessarily. By allowing orange liar and others such free rein, he can let them do the fabricating.

Haters are going to hate. They are also going to deflect rather than discuss the topic at hand.
Musk was not CEO of Twitter when Twitter was censoring free speech. And Twitter was actively suppressing conservative speech. For example: we now know they specifically targeted information about the hunter Biden laptop before Joe Biden's election and even afterwards.
We also know the CEO testified before Congress in 2018 and denied any suppression. Which turns out he perjured himself before Congress. If one would argue he did not know that Twitter was actively suppressing free speech then I would suggest he was a poor CEO at best.
I am interested to see; as more of Twitter's past is unveiled, just how much the alphabet police had to do in this suppression.
While social media is not bound by the First Amendment. Based on the information released about Twitter's past, we see they have selectively targeted conservatives. I understand many liberals would agree with and do agree with the negation and suppression of free speech as evidence by the comments on this thread.
I don't use twitter, because I'm sure there's more haters there than in this political section on roll it up. I do although enjoy the idea that Free Speech should never be suppressed.
