Twitter agrees to sell itself to Elon Musk

Ronald Plett:

The moment she mentioned misinformation, I cracked up laughing

Fredrick Omondi:

Hostile takeover. I just love how Musk is proving everyone wrong including CNN. We need a platform for free speech

Elijah Roth:

Cope harder CNN. Literally everyone is laughing at you. Brian in particular.

Trippie_17:

The fact free speech is a “threat,” tells me open dialogue is a no no😂 I mean it makes total sense… coming from CNN. Oh yea, how’s that CNN+ plus going for ya guys?

Adamz678:

Brian Stelter is the kind of guy that would cook dinner for his wife's boyfriend.

Thunderstruck:

So much for the safe space where everyone blindly reaffirms each other’s opinions nonstop.

Jay Smith:

Wow, how far have we fallen when people are complaining about allowing free speech. Everyone not scratching their head over the media frenzy is lost.

Grace S:

That Ari Melber guy is cracking me up. He's describing exactly what Zuckerberg, Bezos & Dorsey were doing for Biden.

UFO _vid:

Elon also has he's eyesight on CNN.
They're been struggling with ratings. Elon should buy them too. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Victor Eremita:

Let me explain something. When the board votes unanimously to approve a deal, it's NOT hostile.

Shane Lambert:

This is the best news so far this year. More good news to come.

Mike White:

Lol 😂 I'm sorry but this is priceless ! Lefties everywhere losing their minds with just a thought that other people with different views might be allowed to speak.

joseph guidry:

Watching these people is like looking at a Freak Show! It’s very entertaining!

Milton Herrera:

It’s kind of ironic for CNN to be complaining about “misinformation”

Nathanael Culver:

CNN Yesterday: Twitter’s a private company. It can do what it wants!
CNN Today: Oh, no! Twitter’s a private company. Musk can do what he wants!

Old Shark By The Sea:

“Twitter agrees to Sell Itself”
Ha ha ha ha ha
They did that a LONG TIME AGO…

Gamma 144:

CNN: “Twitter agrees to sell itself to Elon Musk.”

Cmon guys just admit defeat. Admit you’re butt-hurt about not being able to censor people you don’t like anymore.

Brennan Craig Cummins:

ITS ABOUT TIME!! Now we can have some real exchange of ideas. People freak out because they worry but this is going to be the best thing that has happened!!!!!

Off the top rope:

"Lost his election" that's the funniest quote of the century!

Danymok:

2:14 So she's saying free speech should not be the goal of a social media platform, but instead to prevent "misinformation". Well, not surprising considering this is CNN, but still disappointing

Hingle Mckringleberry:

Legitimate points of view do not need to be protected from “misinformation”. Always be suspicious of those who believe they need to protect you from information or communication.

Craig Golden:

This is pure gold! I'm finally going to use my Twitter much, much more than a few times a year!

Trees:

I’m going to that party! Who wouldn’t? Lmao

juarez69:

Thank God Elon is saving Twitter and free speech! 👍🏾

basedinstinct:

More dangerous than "misinformation" is partisans deciding what is and is not "misinformation" for the rest of us.

Joe Western:

This is good news for people who want unfiltered discussion.

ERIC FARTMAN:

Freedom of speech must be restored on cyber space thank you Elon!!!!! We love it

Fookin Lit:

Love how they try to attack twitter with the subtle headline as well! They are scrambling! Hahahaha I love it

Chris Chesterfield:

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
I haven't laughed at cognitive distortions this much in a long time.

Thanks, CNN, you never stop amazing me at the lengths of journalistic abuse you're willing to take.

Stephan:

There is something satisfying in seeing these dishonest journalists upset.

Jay Son:

Thanks elon musk for doing the right thing 🙏☺️

J Chan:

Love the phrasing of this video. All in how you sell this story right?

Maybe next Elon can buy CNN+ .

Null Soul Slayer:

This is a good thing.
Note: Elon Musk is NOT even close the “world’s richest man”, he’s simply one of the luckier entrepreneurs.

Paul Harbron:

It’s funny - not funny that they revolve the conversation around former President Trump. Kind of shows you something

Austin Cox:

Funniest thing I’ve heard in a long time is CNN worried about misinformation lol 🤡

lch jr:

Hilarious; Elon proving the saying, “more money than sense”. Buy MySpace and Facebook too.

Za Z:

Elon is awesome! I will now join Twitter! All I know about Twitter is Yahoo quotes it A LOT!

DC4LCRayP214:

Is CNN really talking about “misinformation”
😂 good lord the nerve of these people.

Brian Holder:

Way to go Elon!!!

Not Leaving Las Vegas - a Vegas Video Channel:

It’s okay for Bezos to buy newspapers but not for musk to buy Twitter.

Lun Haolai:

Apparently, CNN is happy... It is obvious from their choice of words describing it 🤣🤣🤣

Duane Moran:

Congratulations Elon on your new adventure.

Chris Albert:

Given that I don't use Twitter, this is just an interesting bit of news that won't affect me one way or the other.

A. G. Hernandez:

I love watching these CNN clowns having a meltdown.

Garrett Swank:

Hostile takeovers = generously paying well over market price for a failing company

DaPinical:

“Agrees to sell itself”
the news industry 🤦🏾‍♂️

Billy Anderson:

Best news I’ve heard in a long time

Professor D:

GOD Bless You Elon Musk!

Luis J:

CNN: " The hell are you supposed to be??"
Elon: " I'm Vengeance"

Robert Nozick:

Lol just days earlier Stelter said he thought Elon was trolling and wasn’t serious - nice one mate

Dj Kiran:

In his mind debating about humanities future is serious🤣🤣

Ghost:

Twitter is a tiny media platform compared to others. It's in 15th place when it comes to monthly active users. Reddit almost has the same exact users, lol.

ATF:

POV: you watch cnn to go to the comments

And your faith in humanity is restored

Patrick Davis:

Elon said he is into free speech. We should test his resolve the second the deal is closed

Robert White:

How is it exactly a hostile takeover? Not to shareholders. Only to board members. Who own little to none of the company.

Bing Bong:

I wish CNN would just close the doors.

Clockwork Orange:

If CNN is upset, you know it's good news.

Sausage Cat Channel:

Great
Now if Republicans regain power we'll see how "impartial" they are when handing out taxcuts to him as would definitely provide significant leverage due to Trump's ...
Love of tweeting.

Frank Cerra:

Hahahahahaha 🤣🤣🤣! I can literally see your woke hearts breaking, CNN! Well done, Elon! A win for free speech! Hopefully we will now have a true and fair definition of disinformation - not just the woke left definition we've been forced to accept all this time!

Steve 0770:

Sometimes I watch CNN just to get a good laugh.

John Bishop:

This is just hilarious how they are now in fear of being censored. 🤬 lmao

Shane Kasper:

He has neve been out of the news, in large part, thanks to CNN.

System 2 Thinker:

If someone offered me more money than my car was worth, I don't think I would call it a "hostile" bid.

Jeanette Petersen:

Thank you Mr Elon Musk for protecting our rights to not being censored.

Krypto KayOh:

How ironic. You’re worried about “misinformation” when your phoney journalism is one of the biggest peddlers of it.

RTQ:

Listening to CNN talk about mid/dis information never fails to entertain.

robert yetter:

People already threatening to cancel themselves 🤣
Love it 🤣
"Oh I'm leaving twitter" 🤣
Bye bye then, see ya
As bad as people threatening to leave America because Trump won
Get over yourselves
Put a H on your chest & handle it
✌️💛😁

anonjan82:

Hilarious how MSM reacts on this. Panic by the idea of free speech.

SIM 740:

I'd love to believe he's gna straiten it out & allow genuine free speech on this platform again,sadly i have my doubts

peaches da puppy:

This is amazing I'm so glad Elon bought Twitter and I don't even use the platform because I think it's terrible, but whatever it's cool there will be new ownership. People deserve the right to speak their mind and they should be able to do so even on Twitter and even if this lady disagrees with them and calls it misinformation. It's not up to Twitter to decide what's true or false it is the duty of the media to investigate and report and the people have the freedom of deciding, sharing, and voicing their opinions. Go Elon!

Maria Bowman:

Congratulations Elon musk... finally Twitter has freedom!!!there you go!!!

Hyyde:

U know what, I’m happy with selter’s take on this, he seems very open minded and seems to have the right spirit about this move. Whether or not Donald trump is a positive or negative figure is obviously controversial, but having him back on Twitter will show people his character and opinions, and that is the beauty of free speech, you can hear everyone’s take with all their cards on the table and be able to determine whether or not you agree with them and have a discussion and I’m glad Stelter sees it that way. I’ve been a Stelter hater for a long time, but I hope we see this side of him more.

Edit: Now that I think about it, maybe he is just happy that cnn can go back to reporting on trump’s tweets again since they are losing viewers.

Deon Lubbe:

Lmao, great work Musk

Duncan McCockiner:

Love these lefty’s losing their minds over this.

Irishgamer 87:

"sell itself to Elon musk" 😂 gotta love CNN, never stop entertaining us 💩

Mauka j:

Im sure elon musk will do great with Twitter, he's the greatest man, i would quit my job of 20years to work for elon musk if i had the opportunity...

Nora life:

Congrats Mr Elon Musk 😂
You have enough Billions $$$$$$ to buy the planet .
I m here struggling with my bills

Richard Davis:

What fantastic news, thank you for sharing CNN 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🙂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Aharon Steinman:

Thank you Elon Musk for Saving free speach.

Jesse Wales:

Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican. You have the right to free speech. Even if we don’t agree.
This is what makes America 🇺🇸

Mark:

Thank god! Let’s hope the censorship stops.

BTRADING:

how i love seeing cnn squirm about elon buying twitter:))

Hambubger Wiles:

I've been using Twitter for about 10 years now. The fact that I can say there's 10 different genders and someone is now allowed to say the words "I disagree" without being banned, called racist, sexist, or a White Supremacist is downright scary. How am I going to cope?

Sunil Nair:

Brian Stelter's face 🤣🤣.

Conr McKocoa:

Elon's move was super tactical. With Q1 profits coming out the board was in a position they couldn't turn down the offer- Twitters profits were low and cratering. He literally made an offer they couldn't refuse

Tony Smith:

Stelter is the epitome of Mark Twain's statement; "It's better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt"

J Oli:

CNN worried about mis information… LOL 😂

Moe Money:

I can tell it’s already changing the way CNN handles its reporting, I came here looking for liberal tears and im very impressed these hosts remained mostly neutral in this topic.

p b:

This video's commentators awareness is to the roof . It's so difficult to find a subject with such Unity in viewers opinions.

Christian Romano:

It didn’t took them long to mention Donald trump 😂😂😂😂

Joe salvator:

I don't know how anyone could think FOX is worse than these guys.

America First:

CNN accusing someone of disinformation LMAO 🤣

Tea Nelson:

When I heard the news Twitter sold out to Musk I was gone and I’m an Independent who voted for Trump 🏃🏾‍♀️run y’all run!

Daniel Miller:

Calling Elon's offer a 'hostile bid' is completely incorrect, it would be like calling CNN a news station.

Chris Fuller:

Watching a journalist make the argument that "total freedom for everybody" is a bad thing was a bit disturbing.

Life Liver:

👍❤ Making Twitter Great Again !

Jonathan Dirmann:

This is a good thing. Period.

not dead yet:

Brian Stelter: Do you really want to be around all these people with this much freedom?

Sturdy Thorpe:

Maybe Musk should buy yet another failing news outlet? CNN.🤣🤣🤣

Jason Howland:

It’s really strange hearing these people worried about free speech
