On Dec. 16, 2022, after Elon Musk suspended several high-profile journalists from Twitter for allegedly doxxing the location of Musk's private jet and, according to him, endangering his family, the screenshot of a tweet supposedly issued by Musk in defense of the suspensions quickly went viral. It read: This was not a real tweet or statement from Elon Musk. It does not appear on Musk's official Twitter timeline, nor, despite some users' claims that he actually did tweet it and then deleted it, does it appear in PolitiTweet's archive containing all of Musk's deleted tweets. The fake screenshot originally appeared on Dec. 16 on the subreddit r/WhitePeopleTwitter with a Satire/Fake Tweet label attached to it. We have therefore rated this claim Originated as Satire.
