Original Note:
Positing that everyone w/an account is a “citizen journalist” is ludicrous. An $8/mo fee for a blue ✔️means only that the user has $96; it’s otherwise meaningless & verifies nothing. Why the into-it-for-$44B owner would want to encourage disinformation to flow is unfathomable. https://www.washingtonpost.com/media/2022/11/03/twitter-blue-checks-verification-journalists-media/
