The Guardian and Don Lemon Depart Elon Musk's 'Toxic' X Platform

The Guardian has decided to stop posting content on Elon Musk's social media platform X, citing it as a "toxic media platform" due to the prevalence of conspiracy theories and Musk's influence on political discourse. Despite having over 80 accounts and 27 million followers on X, The Guardian believes its resources are better used elsewhere. This move follows NPR's similar decision last year after Musk labeled it "state-affiliated media." The Guardian will still allow article sharing and reporter use for newsgathering on X.
