The European Federation of Journalists (which claims to represent over 320,000 members) has followed The Guardian and the German Journalists Association in an announcement that they will stop publishing on Elon Musk's X social media platform staring on January 20, 2025 - The inauguration for Donald Trump's second term as President.  The EFJ is the European regional organization for the International Federation of Journalists.

While the EFJ is a group that the vast majority of people have probably never heard of, their announcement tracks a rising tide of disdain among governments and establishment news outlets in the EU and UK over the new freedom of speech standards on X (formerly Twitter).  The EFJ president, Maja Sever, argued in a statement on the "X-odus":

"We cannot continue to participate in feeding the social network of a man who proclaims the death of the media and therefore of journalists...The social media site X has become the preferred vector for conspiracy theories, racism, far-right ideas and misogynistic rhetoric. X is a platform that no longer serves the public interest at all, but the particular ideological and financial interests of its owner and his political allies."

In other words, Elon Musk has lifted the suffocating wet blanket of online censorship from a single website and the European media are losing their minds.  The organization also claimed that their president had received "misogynistic cyber harassment and death threats", though they did not produce any evidence to support the accusation.

Woke buzzwords like "racism" and "misogyny" no longer have any effect on the general public and the real reason corporate journalists are running away from X is because now they can be challenged on their false information and biased reporting on fair ground and in a fair debate.  Under the previous progressive Twitter regime, leftist journalists and activists could simply contact their friends at the company and have their critics flagged or even banned.
