I wish you were right but it’s an influential platform no matter how much we would like to pooh pooh it. It’s right there in the linked article:
You're right but IMO that part of the article that you highlighted should be the news, not the "we should make Musk do something".
Musk is a billionaire that thrives on attention so any form of headline that cites his name is playing his game.
Twitter is a company with investors. They should be accountable to what happens in their domain. And not by having their wrist slapped because -- for the nth time -- something bad happened. Media should be saying by now that Twitter is a bad place. Like they did with other social networks before.
It's a private company and the only investor that matters is musk.
Those riots absolutely were news, and are not buried in this article either. It is news when elected officials make a public call for the industrialist responsible for the riots to take action. I’m understand why you so dislike Musk getting any attention but that feeling does not make this not news. If you dislike Musk you should be glad to see media amplifying public officials criticism of him.
