Elmo has not wised up.Remember when the only business model internet CEOs believed in was advertising? I do. They all told me @theinformation should be free. Glad the world has wised up. https://t.co/3UUzHLj5xg

How’d that work out?Musk Takes New York as Twitter Tries to Calm Advertisers — new with @SylviaVarnham @beckpeterson

One media buyer privately advised advertisers to review cancellation clauses more rigorously when “booking on longer time horizons with Twitter.”https://t.co/FrelSUbBm5
Well this is the first time I've seen activists blamed for advertising drop off. Pretty sure advertisers are metrics driven. If the ads performed, the dollars would be flooding in. https://t.co/QtxcZOK8Km

That's not hyperbole.Republicans threatening to investigate advertisers who pull out of twitter. Elon threatening to go thermonuclear on them.

Clearly if they want nothing to do with this toxic shithole it is the fault of activists.
Twitter using Tesla engineers to roll out new “thermonuclear name & shame” feature to save ad business. https://t.co/QMpTFpv7yQ

Twitter appears to be suspending accounts that parody the new CEO.

Buckle up.Times have been tough in this Ohio town ever since the woke mob shut down the old rainbow fentanyl factory. So when Elon Musk promised everyone they could post Nazi slogans on Twitter, they finally had something to celebrate. But then the advertiser boycott began.

1/ There is some pretty substantial context about Twitter's 2023 revenue and advertisers that I think partly help explains why Musk is really losing it...
— Angelo Carusone (@GoAngelo) November 5, 2022
And it involves upfront ad sales. Let me explain...
3/ This year, they didn't sell much of anything.
— Angelo Carusone (@GoAngelo) November 5, 2022
A coalition called Stop The Deal spent time educating and using media buyers and big advertisers at the event to ask Twitter some basic questions about potential Musk takeover before giving him a guaranteed income for 2023.
5/ This means that instead of heading into 2023 with 15-20% of 2023 already secured as they typically would have, Twitter heads into next year with almost none of that. All because of Musk's red pilled edgelord approach.
— Angelo Carusone (@GoAngelo) November 5, 2022
Because he is Elmo, Elmo was screwed the minute he decided to buy Twitter. And because he is Elmo, Elmo just keeps pumping gasoline into the burning dumpster.7/ My point here is: It's actually worse than that I think a lot of people even appreciate all because Musk's conduct and commitments to roll back brand safety and community safeguards essentially obliterated Twitter's new front sales event that woulda secured 2023 revenue.

Overnight, Elon Musk turned Twitter into an ad-free app. Respect.

'Cause his new business model seems to be: “Pay or go.”Sullen and a bit teary is a good note for the CEO to end the evening on https://t.co/kxVwWMigWQ

I blame the activists, too.He is fired at end of day. Those agencies start to pause/shift because everything feels uncertain and they don’t know who they should be coordinating with. Then, Elon gets dozens of advertiser CMOs on a call yesterday. It's amazing oppty. pic.twitter.com/ApHHn0pjLL
