Maybe they'll all go start their own box of rightwing Republican bullshit to feed their idiotic racist blatherings.

Same with Jared Kushner, whose name I've seen in similar discussions along this line. But some of these others are mildly interesting.

8. Fox News Twitter Account Remains Dark for Fourth Day Over Tucker Carlson Protest

Nov 2018
Fox News continued its Twitter boycott for a fourth day on Monday in an apparent attempt to protest how the social media platform handled tweets surrounding a recent rally against Fox News host Tucker Carlson. Both the network’s main Twitter account as well as the accounts of some of its hosts remained silent Monday. However, other hosts and show accounts continued to tweet.

Fox News last tweeted on Thursday, and a number of accounts associated with the network stopped tweeting Thursday or Friday as well. The company hasn’t released any official statement over its Twitter absence, and a spokesperson declined to comment.

Multiple outlets reported over the weekend that the Twitter break was to protest the social media company’s slow response to requests to delete tweets that contained Carlson’s home address. Twitter didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.
