Elon Musk's social media platform X has stripped headlines from news articles shared by users, in a move likely to further worsen relations with media groups.
The tycoon has long railed against the "legacy media" and claims X, formerly Twitter, is a better source of information.
He has also banned — and reinstated — various journalists with mainstream outlets including the Washington Post and CNN, as well as appearing to delay posts from accounts including the New York Times."What's the point of reading 1,000 words about something that was already posted on X several days ago?"Some media groups have stopped posting to X altogether because of the rise in hate speech and the behaviour of Musk.
The changes brought a good deal of criticism, journalist Tom Warren of The Verge website posting on X: "It's the latest in a long line of dumb changes on this platform."
