Twitter owner Elon Musk has found a new way to troll his opponents in the liberal media with a healthy dose of toilet humor.
It’s not a question that Musk has been subject to relentless liberal media hit jobs after voicing support for fair and free speech on Twitter. Musk unveiled a funny joke to get back at leftist reporters and Twitter users can bet that it will be a smelly situation for the press: automatic poop emoji responses to media inquiries.
Musk announced the auto-responses to press inquiries in a Mar. 19 tweet. “press@twitter.com now auto responds with 💩,” tweeted Musk.

Not everyone enjoyed the trolling, however. WETA’s Lacy Baugher Milas tweeted, “Imagine spending 44 billion dollars to send poop emojies to reporters.” “Tax the fucking rich,” she continued.

Conde Nast’s Legal Affairs Editor Luke Zaleski called Musk “a superhero of talking shit” in response to Twitter’s new poop policy.

PR News Senior Editor Nicole Schuman-Nibley mourned: “The Twitter PR team was incredible. This is an insult to everyone who worked there.”
The Twitter press team could have been bombarded with media inquiries after the Twitter Files #19 release, “The Great Covid-19 Lie” Machine.
The latest Twitter Files exposed a plot between tyrannical federal agencies, Stanford University’s Virality Project (VP) and a “slew of (often-state funded) NGOs” to censor COVID-19 content, including fact-based speech on natural immunity and government-mandated COVID vaccines and passports.
