We need to act before Musk buys Twitter.

Free Press

Friend,

We’re counting on Twitter to improve its policies to keep all its users — and our democracy — safe from hate and disinformation. We’ve asked Twitter executives nicely to take the necessary steps, and now we’re ready to up the ante by hitting the company where it hurts: its bottom line.

We’ve teamed up with dozens of partner organizations to send a letter to Disney, General Mills, HBO, Kellogg, Kraft, Nestlé and Procter & Gamble demanding that they pull all advertising from Twitter until the platform commits to basic standards of content moderation to keep users safe and limit the spread of hate speech and disinformation.

And now, we need you to add your name. We know that these publicly traded companies are susceptible to public pressure and bad press, so we need to make a BIG splash.

Let’s let companies know that every ad dollar they spend with Twitter supports the amplification of hate, violence and disinformation.

The group of investors that Elon Musk has put together to buy Twitter reads like the guest list at a supervillain convention. Musk may be wavering on going through with the purchase — but we know that if the sale does go through, hate speech and disinformation are likely to get louder and more prolific on the platform.

We need advertisers to act now to demand that Twitter put rules and regulations in place to keep users safe, whether or not this sale is finalized.

We need you with us in this fight. Please add your name today and tell these major companies that they must pull their advertising dollars from Twitter NOW until the rules are in place to keep everyone safe on the platform.

Thanks for all that you do—

Rose

P.S. Twitter hasn’t done what it needs to do to crack down on hate and disinformation. Urge Disney, General Mills, HBO and other companies to pull their advertising dollars from Twitter until the platform takes the necessary steps to keep users safe.
