Comedian Kathy Griffin was booted off Twitter after trying to prove a point about how paid verification doesn’t work. Twitter’s CEO Elon Musk released a response to Griffin’s ban, by trying to be a comedian himself. Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem like Griffin will be welcomed back on the platform.
Musk responded to Benny Johnson after he reported on Griffin’s suspension. He jokingly claimed that Griffin was suspended on Twitter, not because of her impersonating him. It was because she was impersonating a comedian, hinting that he isn’t finding any of her jokes funny.
