Greenwald calls out TikTok for censoring on behalf of US government, not just China

Independent journalist Glenn Greenwald slammed TikTok for reportedly shutting down his video. He also condemned the American government for allegedly pressuring the platform to do so.

Greenwald paired his tweet thread with an article he wrote about the incident. His article appeared to theorize that TikTok had censored his video for noting that major media platforms had radically changed their coverage of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy from negative to positive after Russia invaded.  Alexander Hall is an associate editor for Fox News Digital.

Greenwald illustrated to audiences that while one might expect the China-owned TikTok platform to censor on behalf of Chinese government’s interests, the platform also appears to be silencing content on behalf of the U.S. government.
