Twitter accused of suppressing DNC Wikileaks story
Washington Examiner ^ | 7/22/16 | Rudy Takala

Posted on 07/23/2016 6:58:28 AM PDT by blueyon

Twitter lit up Friday night with allegations that it tried to suppress news that secret-leaking website Wikileaks exposed thousands of emails obtained from the servers of the Democratic National Committee.

Friday afternoon, users noted, "#DNCLeaks" was trending, with more than 250,000 tweets about it on the platform. By Friday evening, it vanished completely from the site's "trending" bar for at least 20 minutes. It returned as "#DNCLeak" after users erupted, though it was too late to quell their rage.

"Don't normally tweet political things, but why would @twitter pull the #DNCleaks from trending at #1. Sounds like censorship to me," said one. "Twitter is still trying to censor this trend! Now #DNCleak is trending instead of original #DNCLeaks! Keep talking guys, expose corruption," said another.

Article this AM here about Ailes departure noted that in the 18-30 group TV news media is falling woefully behind social media as the place most go for “news”. That means that many of these dolts are getting their info from fakebook, yahoo, AOL etc whom all mostly have a lefty bias if not outright lefties.

The media today is like Goebbels’ on steroids.

ICYMI, Donald J. Trump Verified account ‏@realDonaldTrump 4h4 hours ago

Leaked e-mails of DNC show plans to destroy Bernie Sanders. Mock his heritage and much more. On-line from Wikileakes, really vicious. RIGGED

I hope to God Trump jumps on this. This should be a big-time story. Of course, at the moment the MSM is covering Hillary’s VP announcement.

It always was...
But the Sheeple are just learning about it.

I’m a veteran of the “Yahoo Wars”, against the Soros-paid astroturf posters in the late 90’s. A couple of them went to jail for YEARS for stepping over the line while gathering “Pay-For-Post” checks from the Soros Orgs, like Vikram Buddhi.
