Elon Musk’s X has been blocked from pursuing a defamation case in Ireland against a liberal US media watchdog after it claimed adverts on the social media site were placed next to pro-Nazi content.
X, formerly known as Twitter, has been embroiled in a bitter row with Media Matters for America since the social media giant filed defamation proceedings against it in December 2023. Media Matters has accused the social media giant of launching a “vendetta-driven campaign of libel tourism”.
