[...] The Facebook post purports Musk published a tweet about banning reporters on his platform. "You know, in some parts of the world, journalists get murdered for crossing the wrong people. Banning the reporters I don’t like from my own platform feels like a pretty innocuous alternative to me," the purported tweet reads. The claim is false. There are no credible news reports suggesting Musk published such a tweet. Likewise, an advanced Twitter search reveals no such tweet appears on Musk’s verified account. In addition, there is no mention of the purported claim on Twitter’s company blog.
