Bret Stephens Announces He’s Quit Twitter: ‘It’s Like Political Pornography’

EXCERPT:

SCARBOROUGH: "So -- so why -- why did you do it?"
STEPHENS: “I -- I thought — I realized that Twitter brings out the worst in — it’s like political pornography, which is, you know, in the sense that it’s like your naked grunting brain, whatever pops out is -- is there. And I just thought I don’t want to be a part of these conversations. I don’t want to spend time seeing what people are saying about me on -- on Twitter. I don’t want -- I don't want -- I don't want it to reflect my -- my angers when people say things I think are outrageous. And so, I discovered, you know what? The news media existed for thousands of years without Twitter, it can continue to exist and I think it’s fine.”
