The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation paused its use of Twitter on Monday after the social media platform owned by Elon Musk stamped CBC's account with a label the public broadcaster says is intended to undermine its credibility. Twitter labelled CBC/Radio-Canada "government-funded media" — the same label that prompted National Public Radio in the US to similarly quit Twitter last Wednesday.
