Musk is the one who controls what is being released, so he’s shaping the entire narrative. This has been the case since the first of the so-called Twitter Files, which focused on Twitter responding to requests from the Biden campaign to remove Tweets. The context Musk had but didn’t release was that the tweets in question were nude photographs. Obviously that context changes the narrative considerably.
The other issue from that initial post was that requests from the actual government at the time, the Trump administration, were completely glossed over.
What’s the most telling is that despite having access to the information that would prove the strong claims surrounding these Files (government censorship! FBI paying Twitter! Twitter tilted for Democrats!), Musk withholds that information and instead tries to prove his case through innuendo and suggestion. Like you said, the meat is the e-mails. So why are we only getting to see a portion of them filtered through narrative spinning journalists? To me that says the strong information that would prove the Files doesn’t exist at all, so the strong claims of the Files are likely false.
