NFL committed to X partnership as Elon Musks social platform gets heat for hate speech
Summary
The National Football League is sticking with X, formerly known as Twitter, as Elon Musks site faces an advertiser revolt over hate speech and antisemitism on the platform. Since Musk took over last fall, the platform has been caught up in several controversies, including those surrounding Xs policy for moderating harmful content. Last week, Musk agreed with a post on the platform accusing "Jewish communities" of pushing "hatred against whites," CNBC reported earlier this month. Earlier this month, left-leaning media watchdog site MediaMatters.org posted instances of Apple, Bravo and Oracle ads appearing next to antisemitic content on Musks platform. X on Monday sued Media Matters over the report, coinciding with an investigation launched by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton into the watchdog site for possible fraudulent activity.
