Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey at least appears willing to dialogue about how his platform will or will not regulate speech leading up to the 2020 election. According to Motherboard, both President Trump and Jack Dorsey met at the White House on Tuesday to discuss « the health of the public conversation on Twitter. »
An internal company email from Twitter obtained by Motherboard revealed that Dorsey along with several other of the social media giant’s executives participated in a 30-minute « closed-door meeting » with the president on Tuesday, which the outlet confirmed with two independent sources. The meeting was allegedly initiated by the White House.
In a second email obtained by Motherboard, Jack Dorsey explained the reasoning behind his decision to meet with Trump, saying that dialogue will bridge some of the difficult gaps facing the nation.
« As you know, I believe that conversation, not silence, bridges gaps and drives towards solutions, » Dorsey wrote. « I have met with every world leader who has extended an invitation to me, and I believe the discussions have been productive, and the outcomes meaningful.
