To journalist Sarah McBride, the most interesting angle isn't his Twitter silence nor his hiatus. (Lots of celebrities take a break from Twitter.)
What's really puzzling was that he deleted all his tweets. Did you ask him about that?
- BinaryIdiot 10y agoI'm very curious about that too. Many famous people have taken breaks from Twitter but to delete every single tweet is an interesting way to go. It's public so I can't see him trying to hide something but why else would you do it? To avoid and further Twitter interaction or something?
- tw04 10y agoExactly this. It removes the temptation of someone commenting on an old post and then having media contact him to ask what he thinks about someone's opinion of something he said a long time ago. Could someone have archived all his tweets and still bring it up? Sure, but it's far less likely.
