Twitter Inc. has labeled the nonprofit media organization NPR as “US state-affiliated media” in the latest escalation of tensions between its billionaire owner Elon Musk and news outlets.
The label now appears on the public broadcaster’s Twitter profile and its tweets and the designation means that NPR’s posts won’t be recommended or amplified on the platform.
