Only you can shut this idiot up
The following letter I just wrote was deleted by The Washington Post because it didn’t follow their “guidelines”, which is ironic, because what I was trying to do was suggest some useful ones to them:
STOP PRINTING QUOTES FROM "TRUTH" SOCIAL!!! It's nothing but TFG and his bullshit and contradictory nonsense. You're playing into his hands and making yourself part of the problem by empowering his failing Twitter knockoff. Right now it is working exactly as he intended, allowing him the megaphone he wants, and you the media are handing it right over to him in exchange for clicks and eyeballs. He doesn't care if anyone else is on the service and it goes out of business in three months, as long as he can bloviate and you fools dutifully take dictation in the interim. He's not president anymore, and printing his every foul,contradictory utterance does not constitute news!!
[END]
