Ella Irwin, who had been Twitter's head of trust and safety, announced that she has resigned her position after Elon Musk allowed The Daily Wire's documentary to be streamed on the platform on Thursday.
The Daily Wire had decided to air Matt Walsh's documentary "What is a Woman?" for free for one day on the social media platform on Thursday. The documentary was then censored by executives at Twitter.
After the Daily Wire signed an agreement with Twitter, and had allowed executives to review the documentary to determine if any parts would cause backlash or "trigger" users. Twitter had then terminated the agreement and warned that if the documentary was posted, they would limit its exposure to viewers.
Jeremy Boreing, CEO of The Daily Wire, criticized the platform, saying that Twitter had backed out of the deal to premiere the documentary due to "two instances of 'misgendering,'" and that they would still post the documentary regardless of the censorship attempts.
