'Is Twitter Dying?' Tweets Elon Musk

The newest member of Twitter's board of directors just tweeted "Is Twitter dying?" That would be Elon Musk — who'd preceded the question with a list of Twitter's ten most-followed accounts, noting that most of them "tweet rarely and post very little content." And in follow-up tweets, Musk pointed out that Taylor Swift hasn't posted anything in three months, while Justin Bieber "only posted once this entire year." When someone posted a bar graph showing that Twitter's user count continued to grow, Musk posted a reply which he's since pinned to the top of his own Twitter feed. "Now subtract crypto scam accounts that twitter constantly shows as 'real' people in everyone's feed" This isn't the first time Elon Musk has posted something interesting on Twitter, reports AFP:On Thursday, Musk tweeted a photo of himself smoking marijuana on a Joe Rogan podcast in 2018, with the caption, "Twitter's next board meeting is gonna be lit." About an hour ago Musk also shared a graph from YouGov (a British market research and data analytics firm) showing that Democrats and Republicans have starkly different levels of trust in major news sources. On the chart Republicans show an average "trustworthiness" rating above 50% for just two of the 22 news outlets: Fox News and the Weather Channel. Above the chart Musk added the words, "Truth is the first casualty." Two minutes later he followed that tweet with an equally cryptic remark. "69.420% of statistics are false."
