Jack Dorsey Insists That Twitter Doesn’t Influence Elections In Senate Testimony

Worth gazillions... but still maintains 'the liberal homeless' look

Jack Dorsey, the CEO and founder of Twitter, told Congress Wednesday that he doesn’t believe his social media platform influences elections.

(And when I take a shower I don't get wet)

Dorsey made the comments during testimony before the Senate Commerce Committee, a session that also included Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Alphabet CEO Sundar Pichai. He made those remarks amid a verbal standoff with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.), who spent his entire time during Wednesday’s Senate Commerce Committee hearing interrogating Dorsey and ignoring the other two tech executives.

“We are one part of a spectrum of communication channels that people have,” Dorsey said. “People have a choice of other channels.”

Dorsey’s argument seems to be: There are enough competing sources of information out there for Twitter not to be a threat to unduly sway an election. And while Twitter certainly does compete with new media companies like Facebook and the established press, the idea does somewhat belie Twitter’s role in public discourse. Twitter has over 300 million users and is used by countless governments and government officials, including President Trump, worldwide to dispense information. And it is once again a platform that millions are turning to in the lead-up to next week’s presidential election.

Cruz scoffed at the argument, calling it “absurd.” The senator positioned himself to be the most vocal opponent against the tech CEOs in today’s hearing, a conclave that Republicans largely used to renew complaints that social media companies—and Twitter lately in particular—censor conservative voices, a largely baseless allegation.

Have to be a Democrat to work at either one.
