"Users can now report tweets that contain misleading voter information, just as they can for those containing harassment, spam or intentions of self-harm. They will then be reviewed against Twitter's rules, which prohibit content that may mislead voters or suppress turnout, and offenders could face possible recourse."

Twitter users can now report voter suppression, misinformation

Ah, that's funny. The Federalist runs an inaccurate story (the regulations never required first-hand knowledge of events in order to file a complaint; the old form was misleading) then complains about being labeled as inaccurate. ProTip: If conservatives don't want to have their media flagged as inaccurate, they should try to improve their accuracy.

Yeah? Is liberal media whining about being fact checked?

Yes they have whined about many things. For years. And please note you are in the Catholic forum and not American Politics. Both sides of the coin have been caught reporting things that were not factual. Let’s at least be honest about that.
