U.S. — Members of the mainstream media sounded the alarm about the Community Notes feature of X, formerly Twitter, which they say makes it harder for them to lie.

"It is the duty of journalists to report our truth, which sometimes doesn't match up with what many people would call 'reality,'" MSNBC's Rachel Maddow said on her program Thursday evening. "We often have to lie for the greater good, and X's Community Notes is making that much more difficult."

Several anchors and newspaper columnists echoed Maddow's sentiment, calling on X to pull Community Notes from the social media platform. "How am I supposed to make you think what I want you to think if I keep getting fact-checked? This isn't fair!" CNN's Anderson Cooper said, his eyes moist with tears.

Time magazine has reportedly delayed its upcoming issue, hoping to avoid blowback from Community Notes. The editorial staff, however, feared publishing only material approved by Community Notes and removing all lies would leave the entire magazine blank.

On Fox News, Sean Hannity praised what Community Notes was accomplishing with its crowd-sourced fact-checking until he was called out of taking more than he needed from a "Take a penny, leave a penny" tray at his local grocery store.

At publishing time, members of the media were expected to push even harder for Kamala Harris to win the election so she could restore their license to spread lies without consequences.
