Prominent media critics ripped into Politico editor Sam Stein after he warned Twitter CEO Elon Musk against attacking powerful Democratic politicians.
Politico editor and MSNBC contributor Sam Steinfor warning Elon Musk against criticizing Democratic politicians, and now prominent media voices are sounding off on the widely discussed Twitter exchange.
Soon after, Stein tweeted at Musk, and jumped into the conversation by warning him that it was"risky" to publicly"attack" a sitting member of Congress. The Federalist Editor-in-Chief and Fox News contributor Mollie Hemingway told Fox News Digital that Stein’s warning to Musk served as an example of how corporate media figures frequently help powerful government entities threaten Americans.
Journalist are supposed to do their work without fear or favor, and Stein's tweet to Musk could be an indication that the atmosphere at Politico is a"bit chilled," according to DePauw University journalism professor Jeffrey McCall.
