Original Note:
NNN. Tweet states “most fact-checkers were fired.” This is correct. They were not “replaced by” Community Notes, as CN is an unpaid, volunteer program. No FTEs or PTEs took the place of the previous staff or contract fact-checkers. Original post is strictly accurate. https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/misinformation/twitter-fires-employees-fight-misinformation-midterm-elections-rcna55750 https://apnews.com/article/c0334da78b3af9faf2f43cf3f6e52ffa https://apnews.com/article/dd4273dbda5b15343753f56c1f43a659
