Yoel Roth is OUT at Twitter, according to the Wall Street Journal.
Yoel Roth was the Global Head of Safety & Integrity at Twitter. According to the org chart, he led Twitter’s policy and threat investigation teams responsible for a wide range of security, authenticity, and content issues, including platform manipulation, misinformation, election security, data privacy, and user identity.
According to Heavy, Roth is behind Twitter’s controversial fact-checking initiative that targeted President Donald Trump’s tweets about election fraud.
In the past, Roth has stated that members of the Trump administration are Nazis, called Trump a racist tangerine, compared Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway to Joseph Goebbels, and labeled those who live in “fly over states” as racists.
Yoel Roth also blocked the Hunter Biden laptop story from circulating on Twitter in October 2020.
The New York Post – the oldest newspaper in the country, was locked out of its Twitter account and unable to report on the Hunter Biden laptop story shortly before the 2020 election.
Elon Musk also fired Parag Agrawal and Vijaya Gadde as soon as he took over Twitter.
Good riddance!
