The apparent Twitter boycott at Fox News has continued — with some exceptions
By MixDex Article may include affiliate links
After reports surfaced that Fox News is apparently “boycotting” Twitter by going silent, the network’s account still remains inactive.
- The last tweet on @FoxNews, about DACA, was posted Nov. 8, 2018.
- The network’s apparent shunning of the social network comes after it complained about a slow response to Twitter taking down tweets containing host Tucker Carlson’s home address.
- Carlson’s home has been the scene of protesting and police have been called to the site.
- According to inside sources, Fox is not posting on Twitter and wants the social network giant to delete content containing Carlson’s address and issue an apology.
- Fox News’ sister net, Fox Business, has been silent since Nov. 9.
- However, many show accounts, including “Fox & Friends” and host Sean Hannity’s account, have been regularly tweeting since this time.
- The @FoxNews account, however, has 18.1 million followers, which is significantly more than show or personality accounts.
