Musk Takes Twitter.

Elon Must completed his takeover of the Social Media juggernaut. (NY Times)


Elon Musk completed a 44 billion dollar takeover over of the wildly successful social media company. Heads of social media companies are increasingly viewed as gatekeepers of the market place of ideas who decide what views are heard or more importantly heard loudly. The influence of media platforms like Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, on elections have been of keen interest to foreign governments that try and to exert influence to achieve the results they want. Elon Musk’s next moves will be highly scrutinized especially as the 2022 Midterms arrive.
