Greene sent two tweets about vaccines in the past 24 hours or so that Twitter labeled as “misleading.”
Please don’t watch two clips on Twitter and decide that Fox has drastically changed its covid coverage. These are all from yesterday too. pic.twitter.com/zGxJORP06X

Twitter just suspended Marjorie Taylor Greene for 12 hours for posting coronavirus misinformation. A good start. Now suspend her forever.

If NBC had paid me 69 million dollars, I damn sure wouldn’t be spending my day on Twitter showing the world I was an even worse person than we all suspected. @megynkelly

Fox spews dangerous COVID misinformation. It's great that a host took COVID seriously for a moment, but that host has made tons of dangerous comments about the pandemic. Do not over-praise Fox for a single remark that could have been said months ago and saved thousands of lives.

At presser Marjorie Taylor Greene says Dr. Fauci should be fired for lying. First question was from WaPo asking her if she should resign for lying. Perfect.

Just 12 people are responsible for the majority of anti-vaccine disinformation on social media.

And 99% of all COVID deaths are among unvaccinated individuals.
Social media companies can—and must— stop the deadly spread of misinformation.
These lies cost lives.
By suspending her account for 12 hours, Twitter has done more to hold Marjorie Taylor Greene accountable than Congress has.
