Elon Musk’s X sues liberal advocacy group over ads dispute
Elon Musk’s social media company is suing a liberal advocacy group. X claims Media Matters manufactured a report to show advertisers’ posts alongside neo-Nazi and white nationalist posts in order to “drive advertisers from the platform and destroy” the former Twitter. Advertisers have been fleeing X over concerns about their ads showing up next to pro-Nazi content. In its complaint, X accuses the liberal group of “maliciously” manipulating algorithms to create misleading images. Media Matters calls the lawsuit “frivolous.”
