Binder, a tech reporter at Mashable, said he was suspended after he tweeted a screenshot from another suspended reporter, CNN’s O’Sullivan, of a Los Angeles Police Department statement.
"I’ve been on it since 2008. I never got so much as a slap on the wrist, because I always follow the rules," Binder said. "It’s not hard to do when you know what the rules are." According to NBCNews
O’Sullivan said Thursday that all those journalists who were suspended with him were people who cover Musk.
“As we saw with the jet tracker last night, Musk seems to be just stamping out accounts that he doesn’t like,” O’Sullivan said on CNN.
