Analysis: Tucker Carlson and Elon Musk indulged their shared interest in mischaracterizing government oversight in a recent interview on Fox News.
But notice that this is not how Carlson and Musk frame the conversation.
Notice that Musk doesn’t say that government actors were granted full, unlimited access to Twitter communications in the way that Carlson hints. His responses to Carlson comport fully with a scenario in which the government subpoenas Twitter for information and gets access to it in compliance with federal law. Or perhaps doesn’t! In Twitter’s most recent data on government requests, 3 in 10 were denied.
