LeBron James / @kingjames: Welp guess my blue ✔️ will be gone soon cause if you know me I ain't paying the 5. 🤷🏾♂️
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 1) As someone who was (briefly) in charge of the Twitter Media team - the group tasked with getting high profile people onto Twitter, and verification - AND as one of the few ever to voluntarily give up the blue check, I want to try to articulate how risky this policy change is. https://twitter.com/...
Ross A. Lincoln / The Wrap: Joe Biden Won't Pay Elon Musk $8 for a Twitter Blue Check Either
Jemele Hill / @jemelehill: LeBron may have check-mated Elon Musk, because if celebs with his following say paying for a check isn't worth it, that will be disastrous. I'm with LeBron, the moment this blue check is gone, oh well. https://twitter.com/...
Alex Gangitano / The Hill: White House won't be paying for staffers' Twitter verification
Ryan Clark / @realrclark25: Yea man!! It's just a check I can't cash. I for sure ain't paying https://twitter.com/...
Rat King / @mikeisaac: good thread from fmr twtr exec on how checkpocalypse is quite a gamble (and for what i might add is a relatively small payoff if recent subscriber numbers are to be believed...) https://twitter.com/...
Ben Dreyfuss / @bendreyfuss: This is far and away the most compelling argument I have encountered for why the verification fuckery actually matters and could lead to an actual crisis for twitter https://twitter.com/...
Lawrence Hurley / @lawrencehurley: Again, the old twitter verification system always mattered more to twitter than it did to any individual user, and we are about to find out why https://twitter.com/...
Alex Howard / @digiphile: Charging people to be @verified was always a bad idea: https://twitter.com/... A Premium version with more features makes sense when there is a clear return of value (no ads?) for $. Charging global celebrities who create value every time they tweet & engage with people is...🤷♂️ https://twitter.com/...
Clara Jeffery / @clarajeffery: Here's a good thread on what verification used to be about and the economic insanity of Elon's extortion scheme https://twitter.com/...
Christian Borys / @itsborys: Elon didn't understand that verification was like a badge telling people that whatever you were doing in life was noteworthy, so it was kind of cool. Now that people can pay for that notoriety instead of earning it, it becomes EXTREMELY uncool. It smells of being a try hard. https://twitter.com/...
Jaimie Ding / Los Angeles Times: Will celebrities pay for Twitter Blue? Many are ready to lose the check
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 2)The reason the Twitter Media team existed was because *almost all* of the engagement on Twitter happens with tweets from high profile people/organizations across government, sports, music, business, news, whatever the Kardashians are, etc. They're the lifeblood of the platform.
Matt Whitlock / @mattdizwhitlock: I agree with this - I don't want my tax dollars paying for twitter subscriptions for government offices - whether its the White House or a Congressional office. @Twitter should find other ways to verify government organizations. https://twitter.com/...
Molly Jong-Fast / @mollyjongfast: Bye bye “may or may not be notable” https://twitter.com/...
Mitchell Clark / The Verge: Twitter's $1,000 checkmark will be free for the 10,000 most-followed companies
Thomas C. Theiner / @noclador: White House knows it is not “verification”, but a brazen extortion attempt. Twitter's whole value was its verified users and content creators. The former will lose their verification tonight - the latter will be hidden from now on unless they pay. Elon has ZERO business sense. https://twitter.com/...
Keith Edwards / @keithedwards: We don't negotiate with terrorists https://twitter.com/...
Jason DeRusha / @derushaj: Great thread that explains why the blue checkmark crowd (incl me) cares about the ☑️. We generate content that generates engagement - and why keep doing that for a company that holds you in contempt? https://twitter.com/...
Jay Zawaski / @jayzawaski: As Twitter verifications go away tomorrow, here's why it matters to people in the media industry and beyond. Do I care about a blue check? Not really. Does it make it harder to do my job and give YOU accurate info? Yes. https://twitter.com/...
Bob Cesca / @bobcesca_go: No one should. Elon screwed up and overpaid — no one should help him pay for his crashed car. https://twitter.com/...
Keith Edwards / @keithedwards: Excellent thread. https://twitter.com/...
Dan Pfeiffer / @danpfeiffer: Not having a blue checkmark is the new status symbol https://twitter.com/...
Elie Mystal / @elienyc: King James has the right idea https://twitter.com/...
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 4) There were a bunch of important safety and security reasons for doing this as well. Hero tweeps like @KatieS and @Larakate have all the scars/stories to prove it. It was also possible to organically build a verifiable account by gaining followers and impact on the platform.
@ashleygjovik: It didn't really hit me until I saw this update But many institutions (including actual govs), are undertaking tactics with Twitter/Elmo often used in public international law conflicts Naming/shaming, sanctions, ending/pausing diplomatic relations, banning or burdening trade https://twitter.com/...
@doctoryasmin: He'll just make a different coloured check mark for celebs and/or do something similar to what he did with businesses and say ‘oops, forgot to mention, people with x amount of followers can keep their check mark’ https://twitter.com/...
Taylor Rooks / @taylorrooks: Players always say Lebron doesn't even pay for data roaming and will wait forever to get to a place with wifi because he refuses to do that extra cost....so this definitely tracks 😂 https://twitter.com/...
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 13) The likely sequencing will be like LeBron: first, give up the check and not pay. But as the experience degrades and impersonation abounds, creators will start to wonder why they'd contribute content to a platform and company that holds them in such contempt.
Brian Kibler / @bmkibler: The funny thing is that the *reason* people care about blue check marks is *because* famous people like LeBron have them. Removing them from existing verified accounts just turns them into “this MF paid for Twitter” fodder and nothing else. https://twitter.com/...
Susan Del Percio / @delpercios: Who's paying for twitter verification? I am not. https://twitter.com/...
Sophia A. Nelson / @iamsophianelson: None of us will https://twitter.com/...
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 9) But what Twitter is going to start doing tonight flips the equation - it is going to ask its most important creators to *pay Twitter* instead of the other way around. Every other social media platform has found a way to pay its creators, not charge them. Will it work?
Aaron Reichlin-Melnick / @reichlinmelnick: As a person who thinks a lot about the budget, I've been expecting this. $12,000/year for a gold checkmark on Twitter is just not a justifiable expense for most governments, big or little, so I expect few will pay. Imagine asking a small town with a tight budget to pay that. https://twitter.com/...
Nathan Hubbard / @nathanchubbard: 14) That will be the point at which we might expect a wave of silence to ensue. The first real staring contest of the creator economy is upon us. Will creators seize the moment? Can Twitter sustain it? 🍿
Matt Ford / @fordm: I don't really care whether I'm verified, but if *no one* is verified—truly verified, not just paying for a cosmetic blue check—then this website's utility and everyday value drops a lot. https://twitter.com/...
Dan Bernstein / @dan_bernstein: I'm also team #ohwell. https://twitter.com/...
Glen McGregor / @glen_mcgregor: Excellent 🧵on blue check issue. I don't care much about mine — I was a Twitter evangelist long before I had one — but stripping verification will make the platform a lot less useful, for journalism and public discourse. https://twitter.com/...
Ryan Broderick / @broderick: There have been all kinds of moments since Musk bought Twitter that you could point to as the exact moment it was officially “over,” but I actually think this is it. The US gov having a meaningful presence here was what elevated Twitter over, say, Reddit. Site's cooked. https://twitter.com/...
Sahil Kapur / @sahilkapur: Twitter's biggest asset has been to get some of the most interesting or powerful or popular people on the planet to post daily content on this site for free; all in return for merely verifying that they are who they say. Now they want those creators to pay? Good 🧵 here 👇 https://twitter.com/...
Rob / @robl_l: @MollyJongFast It's a good job no one is lining up to cause mischief https://twitter.com/...
Rory Johnston / @rory_johnston: Going great. Don't worry, I'm sure we'll have a Blue-verified White House account hosted in a hostile power in no time. https://twitter.com/...
Rob Sheridan / @rob_sheridan: Say what you will about Elon, but it is truly impressive to be so uncool to your very core that despite every potential resource on the planet at your disposal you still make a service so spectacularly lame that guys who make 50 mil a year will make a point not to give you $8 https://twitter.com/...
Evan McMurry / @evanmcmurry: “It is our understanding that Twitter Blue does not provide person-level verification as a service. Thus, a blue check mark will now simply serve as a verification that the account is a paid user.” https://www.axios.com/...
Tolu Ogunlesi / @toluogunlesi: Wawu. If @elonmusk capitulates and exempts the White House, he will have to extend the exemption to @NGRPresident and @NigeriaGov, no? https://twitter.com/...

Sara Fischer / @sarafischer: Scoop: @WhiteHouse won't pay for @Twitter verification — It will not enroll in Twitter's “Verification for Organization” program either — It also won't reimburse staff who chose to pay for Twitter Blue either Story on @axios: https://www.axios.com/...
Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: The Los Angeles Times also says it will not pay for Twitter Blue, noting “verification no longer establishes authority or credibility.” Here's an internal note from managing editor Sara Yasin that went out to staff. https://twitter.com/...
Brooke Binkowski / @brooklynmarie: Is it really a verification any more or is it just a subscription https://twitter.com/...
Oliver Alexander / @oalexanderdk: Officially time to stop calling it “Verification” which it no longer is and just call it a premium subscription. https://twitter.com/...
@spj_tweets: “In the future, a checkmark will no longer mean you are a verified journalist. Instead, it will simply mean you are paying for benefits such as longer tweets and fewer ads.” https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...

Oliver Darcy / @oliverdarcy: POLITICO also tells staff: “In the future, a checkmark will no longer mean you are a verified journalist. Instead, it will simply mean you are paying for benefits such as longer tweets and fewer ads. POLITICO will not pay for you to subscribe to Twitter Blue.”
Blake Herzinger / @bdherzinger: I am told this is what business acumen looks like - trying to charge people to produce the content and data your model requires, then having everyone but neckbeards refuse to pay you. Incredible stuff. https://twitter.com/...
Matt Navarra / @mattnavarra: The Newsrooms Who Say They'll Pay For Twitter Blue Checkmarks For Their Journalists The New York Times: ❌ Washington Post: Undecided CNN: Undecided The Los Angeles Times: ❌ Semafor: ✅ The Daily Caller: Undecided Insider: ❌ BuzzFeed: ❌ HuffPost: ❌ https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...
John Scalzi / @scalzi: The Twitter blue check no longer verifies identity, it just confirms you're spending money, so from a journalistic point of view it makes no sense to pay. Have the outlet post a list on its site of its reporter's accounts and have the accounts link to it. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/ ...

Heidi N. Moore / @moorehn: @JoeBelBruno @paulvigna The mass verification of newsrooms is often mocked but I actually think it was helpful in spreading accurate information for years. (I got mine artisanally back in 2011 however). It's basically unwieldy and nothing will fix it.
Andrew Marchand / @andrewmarchand: One down ... https://twitter.com/...
Roslyn / @roslyntalusan: for those of you who feel pressured into buying twitter blue for business purposes*, please bear in mind that corporations are resisting this site owner's extortion scheme. *paying ~$8 to the man screwing your business over is not a good business decision. https://twitter.com/...
Kate Bevan / @katebevan: Big news orgs saying nope to paying for their reporters to have Elon's blue checks - good. https://twitter.com/...
Angus Johnston / @studentactivism: Honestly this is a no-brainer on multiple levels. The blue check is about to become a tool for impersonation, so it makes sense to stay away completely. https://twitter.com/...

John Iadarola / @johniadarola: We need to see more major outlets signing on to this. https://twitter.com/...
Rat King / @mikeisaac: this is a no-brainer imo forget any feelings one might have about mgmt or the company — the way they are handling bluechecks now is punitive rather than value-adding and there's no actual safeguard against impersonation whether you buy it or not, which is the major concern https://twitter.com/...

Scott Nover / @scottnover: Twitter needs the New York Times WAY more than the New York Times needs Twitter. And it's not particularly close. https://twitter.com/...
Benjy Sarlin / @benjysarlin: Would be tens of thousands per month for “real” branded verification ($1k per brand, $50 per affiliated account). If brands don't pay, this whole model falls apart pretty quickly revenue-wise. https://twitter.com/...
Daniel Summers / @wfkars: It would be inane for anyone who got “legacy” verification for the sake of, y'know, actually being verified as who they said they were, to pay for the same symbol when it lacks all value whatsoever. https://twitter.com/...

Nicolas Gonzalez / @nicosgonzalez: Comms guy here. Yes—no one really clicks links here compared to other platforms that drive way more traffic. This place is/was great in order to be part of a specific “discourse” and to elevate and/or engage with specific subject-matter experts. Also breaking news. Alas... https://twitter.com/...
Andy Campbell / @andybcampbell: Even if this was a good deal for companies, and even if newsrooms got high traffic from twitter (we don't), there's zero incentive to pay for any feature announced by a CEO who rips up his own rule book each week. https://twitter.com/...
Josh Marshall / @joshtpm: Seriously why would any outlet pay for it. It now just identifies the account as a troll account with fewer than 200 followers. https://twitter.com/...
Max Burns / @themaxburns: Can't wait to introduce my new Twitter account, @NYTlMES https://twitter.com/...

Ryan Hanrahan / @ryanhanrahan: Making a blue checkmark meaningless makes absolutely no sense to me. Will make vetting information that much harder and make this platform even less useful than it already is. https://twitter.com/...
Lakshya Jain / @lxeagle17: Twitter really doesn't drive a lot of traffic. Not sure how many news organizations are going to pay the astronomical fees for verification ($1K/mo per brand, and then $50/mo for each affiliate).

Gal-Dem / @galdemzine: We are incredibly sad to announce that gal-dem is closing. Several factors that have contributed to this difficult decision, including numerous challenges with running a small, mission-driven, independent media company. We've shared more here https://gal-dem.com/...
gal-dem: Goodbye from gal-dem — We are incredibly sad to announce that after eight years, gal-dem is closing.
Suyin Haynes / @suyinsays: I'm so deeply saddened to share that after eight years, @galdemzine is closing. I will always be incredibly proud of what our team has achieved and the stories we were able to tell https://gal-dem.com/...
Kemi Alemoru / @kemioliviax: It's kind of hard to put into words how much of an incalculable loss this is. The path it created for creatives like me, the friendships made, the laughs, the clapbacks, the parties, exhibits, films, podcasts, the conversations we led. I learned so much. https://gal-dem.com/...
Reni Eddo-Lodge / @renireni: The UK's media landscape felt hostile towards young people of colour before Gal-dem came along. The magazine was so necessary, such a balm to many of our souls, so assertive in centering marginalised voices. We cannot take quality independent media for granted. https://twitter.com/...
@labaatanzine: We here at labaatan wouldn't exist without gal-dem, they are a pivotal space in British media and it is absolutely shameful they can't continue to operate. Thank you for all the work you've done! https://twitter.com/...
@beardedgenius: Really sad news. So many brilliant people were part of the gal-dem story. I hope something just as exciting, vital and inspiring grows in its place https://twitter.com/...
Ashitha Nagesh / @ashnagesh: Incredibly disheartening news today and a real loss for British media. Many great women and non-binary journalists of colour's careers were made by @galdemzine when other outlets wouldn't give them the same chances. Very sad to see it go. https://twitter.com/...
@brandonjinx: Damn. I still have the first print issue. Y'all held it down 🙏🏿 https://twitter.com/...
Tania Branigan / @taniabranigan: Extremely sad - but what a legacy. https://twitter.com/...
@runnymedetrust: An incredibly sad day for UK journalism. @galdemzine provided a rare and vital platform for women and non-binary people of colour to share their experiences and speak truth to power. A huge loss for our media landscape. Solidarity with gal-dem staff and freelancers ❤️ https://twitter.com/...
Arjun Singh / @arjunsinghl: Incredibly gutted to hear about the closure of gal-dem, an great platform for women/nb-led investigative and opinion journalism Here's a thread of great articles written by Punjabi and/or Sikh women they've platformed over the years: https://twitter.com/...
@emmaggarland: a sick publication that has given every traditional outlet a run for its money with vital and deeply felt journalism. a loss under any circumstances but especially now, when british media is so hostile & the barrier to access higher than it's been in years https://twitter.com/...
@beebabs: This is very very sad. Gal-dem really did so much for the media landscape, they saw Black women, heard them, heralded them. They were one of my first profiles I had as an author! Definitely the first photoshoot I had for a magazine. It meant so much to me. Such a loss https://twitter.com/...
Michele Theil / @micheletheil: This is so upsetting. Gal-dem was my first commission as a journalist and the first time I believed that I could do this as a job. I am so sorry to all the staff and the future POC writers that won't experience what a groundbreaking publication it was. ✊😢 https://twitter.com/...
Peymana Assad / @peymasad: This is a loss! I thought @galdemzine really pushed the debate forward on certain topics - especially about race, inclusiveness, and challenging the status quo. It was always interesting to read these diverse perspectives. https://twitter.com/...
Rhiannon L Cosslett / @rhiannonlucyc: This is sad. They changed the digital media landscape and produced some brilliant writers - many of whom are thriving and who will go on to thrive I hope! https://twitter.com/...
Nafisa Bakkar / @nafisabakkar: Incredibly sad and a devistating loss to the media landscape. The gal-dem team have always been so incredibly generous in knowledge sharing and I really cherish them as colleagues in this industry where there isn't many of us. Their spirit will live on 🧡 https://twitter.com/...

Holly Brockwell / @holly: Like the brilliant women's media brands that have gone before, what we should take from this is the amazing amount achieved in those 8 years and the difference it made to readers, writers & society - especially in such hard times for digital journalism. Rest in power @galdemzine https://twitter.com/...
Vanessa Kisuule / @vanessa_kisuule: Oh, gal dem. I am, ofc, bereft. But I also just have to say thank you.

Forever grateful to have come of age with this magazine https://twitter.com/...

Diane Abbott MP / @hackneyabbott: Very sorry to hear gal-dem is closing. It's journalism is needed now more than ever. https://twitter.com/...
@aniefiokekp: gal-dem were real pioneers in British journalism. The level of rigour & quality they operated at while being independent was truly incredible There's a real legacy in the writers who've passed through their doors. Some incredible journos/writers whose work will be read for years https://twitter.com/...
@kidsofcolourhq: Heartbroken for the incredible @galdemzine. Solidarity to everyone who is part of the team, whether now or previously, who must be hurting today. Personally, we are so thankful for gal-dem's support of the No Police in Schools campaign 💛. https://twitter.com/...
Simon Hattenstone / @shattenstone: This is such sad news. gal-dem produced so many great young journalists we had the pleasure of working with & getting to know when they did a guest takeover of the Guardian's Weekend mag. It's a real loss. https://www.theguardian.com/ ...
Diyora Shadijanova / @thediyora: A dire time for left-wing media, I stand in solidarity with all of gal-dem's staff, past and present. Many learning curves. Much to say, but not right now. Feeling proud of all the work we did but heartbroken about the work we didn't get to do. https://twitter.com/...
Mollie Goodfellow / @hansmollman: This is such a loss. Can't help but feel as though media is going backwards in terms of accessibility. https://twitter.com/...

Katie Goh / @johnnys_panic: i can't even begin to comprehend the loss of gal-dem - to readers, writers, the uk's media landscape, staff and freelancers who have just lost their jobs and income. solidarity with old colleagues. we deserved better than this ending https://twitter.com/...

Charlotte Tobitt / Press Gazette: Gal-dem closes after eight years citing impact of reduced brand budgets
Ashley Carman / Bloomberg:
Sources: NPR has held multiple, tense all-hands meetings in which impacted employees grilled executives about layoffs and cancellation of four seasonal podcasts — Welcome back to Thursday and to Soundbite. This week we're looking at the scene inside NPR since the organization's layoffs last week.

Noah Rothman / @noahcrothman: The revolution comes for NPR. https://www.bloomberg.com/... https://twitter.com/...
Andrew T. Walker / @andrewtwalk: What an amazing piece of journalism that shows the revolution destroying itself from consuming late stage critical theory madness. You all lost your jobs but at least you had an appropriate quota of trans employees. https://www.bloomberg.com/...

A 2023 bipartisan Senate bill almost identical to a 2022 bill would force companies with $20B+ in annual digital ad revenue to sell part of their business — Say hello to the US government's latest attempt to force antitrust regulations on the digital advertising industry. — It might sound familiar.

AdExchanger: The AMERICA Act May Finally Bring Much-Needed Common Sense Rules To Digital Advertising
Mike Lee / @senmikelee: Today, I introduced the AMERICA Act to restore and protect competition in digital advertising. The lack of competition in digital advertising means that monopoly rents are being extracted from across the economy. https://www.lee.senate.gov/...

@berinszoka: Lots of discussion of the AMERICA Act for and against. But I cannot find a link to the actual text. You know, the thing that would become law? Is it up? If we're not exactly sure what's in it, and haven't had time to think abou tit, how can anyone be for it? https://twitter.com/...

Jason Kint / @jason_kint: Smart bipartisan bill. High-speed trades, exchanges, brokers, auctions, floors, ceilings...language of Wall Street, but also adtech.

Joaquin Castro / @joaquincastrotx: Americans want to see their communities on-screen, and Hollywood should listen. Last year, theatrical films with 31 to 40 percent diverse casts were some of the highest performers at the box office.

Janine Granda / @beingjanine: Read through this and some of my biggest takeaways are... 1) We've got a long way to go. 2) Latins are the biggest minority yet we continue to be underrepresented. 3) White audiences, you need to be more supportive of diverse stories. I mean, yikes. How embarrassing for y'all. https://twitter.com/...
