It's because, like it or not, Twitter took over the media's role. That's just a fact and it's all because the media allowed it to happen by not fulfilling their role. Only now they are pissed about it since they have a villain to vilify in Elon Musk. The real culprit is the media itself and they'll never see or admit that.It still totally amazes me how the news media thinks twatter is the voice of the nation.
