Check the CBS O&O’s and the CBS News websites and you will see that most of them have not posted a tweet for the past 3 or 4 hours (this post is written at 7:39PM EST on Friday).

Word is that CBS has ordered the staff to stop using Twitter for the next 48-72hr until the company can assess if the platform is safe.

Twitter has locked out all employees over the weekend as Twitter owner Elon Musk fears a rogue employee might take down the site.

Many believe Twitter is already on the verge of dying and could be gone in a matter or days or weeks.

Musk has said that he is going to allow people to post what they want, but that Twitter will bury hateful and threatening posts.

It will be interesting to see if other media outlets follow CBS’s lead.

Stay tuned….
