(CNN)Twitter is said to be nearing a deal to sell itself to Elon Musk, according to The New York Times and other outlets, 11 days after the Tesla and SpaceX CEO shocked the industry by offering to buy the company in a deal valuing it at more than $41 billion.

A deal could be finalized as soon as Monday, according to the Wall Street Journal. Twitter declined to comment on the reports.
Reports that a deal is imminent come after Musk revealed last week he had lined up $46.5 billion in financing to acquire the company. Twitter's board met Sunday to evaluate Musk's offer to buy all the shares of the company he does not currently own for $54.20 a piece, a source familiar with the deal confirmed to CNN. The source said that discussions about Musk's bid have turned serious.

Allowing a private company to make their own decisions is Democracy.

Trumppers do not comprehend Democracy.

Le Sigh retard

democracy is when control of a government body is in the hands of the majority. the majority of twitter members are not who decided what speech is allowed - and it has nothing to do with government

a small number of fascist progressive assholes are making those decisions in an attempt to control the masses and thwart democracy by controlling the flow of information. I get why you are pissed about this - you are one of those assholes and one of your weapons is about to be demolished

You are aware that Twitter is a private company, what they decide to do is their right

You people are just pissed cause they shut down Trump, plain and simple, got nothing to do with censorship or controlling information, Alex Jones and others have been doing exact same thing for years, but that never raised the right’s anger

you aware that share owners vote based on the # of shares they own?

would we still be a democracy if my vote was weighted based on how much money I put into the government?

to claim twitter functions like a democracy is retarded dude. you are retarded. it is totally indefensible.

No one said Twitter functions like a democracy, but rather that they operate in a democracy, so as a private company in a democracy they can do as they like short of violating law.

And, faced with a solid offer to buy the company at above market value, they either agree or need a damn good reason not to. Telling Musk to cram it for political reasons will get Twitter's management tossed in jail under SEC rules.
