Twitter announced Tuesday it will allow political advertising in the United States from candidates and political parties ahead of the 2024 election, reversing its previous policy.
“Building on our commitment to free expression, we are also going to allow political advertising,” Twitter said in a statement.
With the decision to bring back political advertising, it will still apply “specific policies” to them, according to the statement. This includes prohibiting the promotion of “false or misleading content,” including information “intended to undermine public confidence in an election.” (RELATED: ‘Extra Layer Of Protection’: Elon Musk’s X Is Laying The Groundwork To Censor ‘Harmful’ Election Content)
