SHUT HIM UP! Twitter Suspended Just The News Founder John Solomon for Doing Journalism

Thank you for only approving journalism! That appears to be Twitter’s logic behind suspending Just the News founder John Solomon for 12 hours. Solomon bashed the censorship as “outrageous and unfair.”

Just the News released a statement Dec. 28 noting that Solomon was suspended from the leftist Big Tech platform “for sharing an article about the legal distinctions between Pfizer’s fully approved and emergency use authorization (EUA) COVID-19 vaccines.” The distinction “could affect the legality of vaccine mandates.” Twitter slapped the article Solomon attempted to share with a “Warning: this link may be unsafe” label and propagandized that it “could lead to real-world harm.” 

Twitter may like vaccine mandates. “An immunologist who reviewed the article told Just the News he saw nothing wrong with it factually,” according to the statement. Twitter had reportedly “limited” Solomon’s account temporarily for 12 hours because his tweet supposedly violated “its policy on ‘spreading misleading and potentially harmful information’ related to COVID.”

Activity on Solomon’s account suggests that it had been restored. “It’s Twitter’s second known suspension of a JTN staffer’s account for comments about vaccines, which it lifted after the CDC confirmed the tweet was accurate,” according to Just the News. Solomon attempted to share the link, but it still had the warning label.

Here was the context behind the article that Twitter apparently didn’t like:

According to the report, Pfizer and other experts claimed that fully-approved Comirnaty vaccine uses the same manufacturing processes and ingredients as EUA vaccine (known as Pfizer BioNTech). But it also cited the FDA’s acknowledgment that the two are ’legally distinct’ owing to more stringent requirements for the Comirnaty vaccine, whose biologics license application (BLA) was approved.

Two Harvard Medical School epidemiologist Martin Kulldorff and Jay Bhattacharya, a Stanford School of Medicine Professor of Medicine were cited in the statement. “There is nothing in the story that is not well reported or misleading,” said Bhattacharya. “‘Twitter’s censorship of COVID information has contributed greatly to the collapse in trust in public health.’”

Kulldorff added, “It is scary to live in such censorship, which also lea[d]”Self-censorship”

Solomon also condemned Twitter’s censorship

‘It is outrageous and unfair that a story that is completely accurate and points out an important legal distinction between the two versions of vaccines gets blocked and my account suspended.’
