Musk tells Sen. Markey: Your acccount sounds like a parody
After Sen. Ed Markey demanded to know why a Washington Post reporter was able to create a verified account impersonating him:
A @washingtonpost reporter was able to create a verified account impersonating me—I’m asking for answers from @elonmusk who is putting profits over people and his debt over stopping disinformation,” Markey tweeted Friday, with a screenshot of his letter to Musk on the matter. “Twitter must explain how this happened and how to prevent it from happening again.
Musk responds:
Perhaps it is because your real account sounds like a parody?
