March, 2024. 60 Minutes does a segment on the "rampant disinformation" on X since Elon Musk purchased the site.
Leslie Stahl: "The site is rife with trash talk and lies."
60 Minutes actually used a post that had gotten a Community Note for being fake as evidence that X is now "rife with disinformation."
60 Minutes warned that the "disinformation" on X could ruin elections and threaten democracy. 😂
Fun facts. Before the 2020 election Leslie Stahl told the world that Hunter Biden's laptop was just a conspiracy and that it had been discredited. Both lies. Before the 2024 election 60 Minutes edited Kamala's answers to make her sound coherent. Watch out for those posts with Community Notes on X though.
