The Guardian says its quitting X due to its 'toxic' nature
UK daily The Guardian says it will stop posting from its "official editorial accounts" on X but users can still "share" articles from the daily newspaper on the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.
Summary
The Guardian announced it will stop posting from its main editorial accounts on X, citing the platform’s “toxic” environment and Elon Musk’s influence in shaping political discourse, particularly around the recent U.S. election.
The British newspaper expressed concerns over increasing far-right content and disinformation on X, which it says Musk has enabled.
Although articles can still be shared by users, The Guardian intends to focus on promoting its journalism through other platforms, noting that X now plays a “diminished role” in its outreach efforts.
