The Major Social Media Platforms Are All Rejecting Paid Ads for Alex Gibney’s ‘Musk’ (Exclusive)

YouTube, TikTok and Meta have all turned down the trailer for the Oct. 9 doc, citing “political” content. X won't even take Bleecker Street's calls. The distributor is appealing.

Media consolidation, working as intended 😡.

      then corporations got involved… every damn time companies start using things everyday people use, it breaks and must be abandoned.

        It’s engineered to be this way today too. Modern day dystopia in a way. Governments and Tech bros controlling behaviours abuse these platforms and you get a giant shitshow like this.

    They’re all run by literal fascists, and it’s about a fascist. Not sure why anyone is surprised, and what they actually expected?

    From the title, I thought the documentary wouldn’t be interrupted with ads in a rare focused attack on Musk by TikTok, Meta, and Google.

    But then when the realization came, I wasn’t surprised, just disappointed.
