UK’s ‘The Guardian’ leaves X citing Musk’s influence in US Prez poll

British news publisher The Guardian on Wednesday said that it is quitting the social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, citing billionaire owner Elon Musk’s influence during the US presidential election process.

In a statement on Wednesday the publication said it will no longer post from any official Guardian accounts on the site.

Further, it said that the recent US election underlined its view that X is a “toxic” platform and that Musk uses it to influence politics.
