The Washington Post to pause X advertising

by | Nov 29, 2023

The Washington Post will pause its advertising on X, a spokesperson told Washingtonian.

The decision, continues Washingtonian, follows owner Elon Musk’s bizarre embrace of the utterly debunked “Pizzagate” conspiracy theory and thatIt’s not really worth going into the mechanics of what led one of the world’s richest people down the same dumb rabbit hole that caused Edgar Maddison Welch to enter Comet Ping Pong in Northwest DC with a gun almost seven years ago today. But it’s of a piece with Musk’s recent praise for an antisemitic conspiracy theory that has reportedly cost X, formerly known as Twitter, more than $75 million in revenue and caused some media companies to distance themselves from the platform altogether.”

The Post did not state how much it spent advertising on Twitter/X. Twitter did not immediately reply to a request for comment.

The Post joins a lengthy list of advertisers exiting X.
