In a rare move, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey apologized to a right-wing personality for Twitter labeling her as “far right.”
It was Candace Owens, who has gained recent fame when Kanye West tweeted about her.
Hi Candace. I want to apologize for our labeling you “far right.” Team completed a full review of how this was published and why we corrected far too late (12 hrs after). There was a clear break in our curation process and understanding, and we’re fixing. Thanks for calling out.

She was upset at her label in this Twitter “moment”:
Far right? Allow me to clarify: I believe the black community can do it without hand-outs. I believe the Democrats have strapped us to our past to prevent us from our futures. And I won’t stop fighting until all black Americans see that.

Now, I might quibble whether the label is correct or not, but whatever you think of that it’s good to see Dorsey actually admit guilt and fix something when it has to do with the right wing. We see it ALL the time when it comes to left-wing snowflakes whining about “bullies,” but for some reason he responded this time. Probably because he wants to gain favor with Kanye…
