The issue was not previously suspended accounts.
All flight data is readily accesible by anyone with live flight tracking on multiple websites.
It is very easy to track his plane when it is in the air, a quick searrch shows it is a 2015 Gulfstream G650ER, tail number N628TS.
The journalists who had their accounts shut down were referencing @ElonJet, an account made by Elon that shared a link to one of these aircraft tracking websites.
The issue was not with his own account he removed, it was with the journalists who had there accounts suspended for referencing his account.
I realize that. I also realize that Musk is, after all, a private citizen and the said :"ournalists " were not publishing that information because they liked Musk, did they?

The issue is not whether they liked him. You stated that it was false that Elon suspended accounts based on refence to him.
Now you are sayng he did ban them.

"It’s not clear exactly how the reporters in question had violated this newly declared policy. None appeared to have posted any actual data about Musk’s plane, but some had written that @elonjet’s page on the competing social media site Mastodon still exists. (Writer Christopher Hooks later observed that Twitter appears to have prohibited all links to Mastodon on the grounds that they are “potentially harmful.”)"
Some of the accounts banned.
"The suspended journalist accounts include those of the Washington Post’s Drew Harwell, the New York Times’ Ryan Mac, CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, Substack’s Aaron Rupar, and Voice of America’s Steve Herman."
Harwell, whose most recent stories covered the ban of @ElonJet and the rise of baseless claims on Twitter, discovered he was unable to log into his account or tweet around 7:30 p.m. Thursday.

It played out live on Twitter. Most of people, reasonable people, wholly agreed with action Musk took. The opponents tried to frame it as a free speech issue, of course, which was and continues to be asinine.

So you agree Musk banned or suspended these accounts.

So, tell me, who was it who took on Sydney Powell and took her apart, live and in color, before millions of his own "brainwashed " fans?
The courts.

Once Murdoch and rump realized she was a loser they threw her under the bus.

When Winston said that old socialists had no brains....oh, how right he was.
Old Winston could not possibly have foreseen the idiocy posted on TERB.

Actually JC is correct here, Tucker took her and Giuliani to task on November 19, 2020.
This was said after the interview:
"That's a long way of saying we took Sidney Powell seriously, with no intention of fighting with her. We've always respected her work and we simply wanted to see the details. How could you not want to see them? So we invited Sidney Powell on the show. We would have given her the whole hour. We would have given her the entire week, actually, and listened quietly the whole time at rapt attention.
But she never sent us any evidence, despite a lot of polite requests."

Shockingly, watching this 2 years later Tucker seems like a real normal broadcaster.

You really think the tucker is voicing his opinions?
Tucker hated rump but still had to back him and the big lie.

LOL! Carlson is damn good at what he does as anyone who actually watches him acknowledges, without much argument. It's not an accident he rules the ratings on cable.
