    Elon Musk says X to file 'thermonuclear' lawsuit against media watchdog Media Matters
    https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-11-18/elon-musk-says-x-to-file-lawsuit-against-media-matters/103122614
    X Corp, formerly Twitter, will file a lawsuit against Media Matters and those who attacked social media platform X, Elon Musk has said. Mr Musk posted a statement on Saturday on the platform, soon after major US companies paused their advertisements on the site. "The split second court opens on Monday, X Corp will be filing a thermonuclear lawsuit against Media Matters and all those who colluded in this fraudulent attack on our company," Mr Musk wrote on X, without naming any other parties. Liberal media watchdog group Media Matters for America earlier this week said it found that corporate advertisements by IBM, Apple, Oracle and Comcast's Xfinity were being placed alongside anti-Semitic content. IBM on Thursday said it immediately suspended all advertising on Musk-owned X after the watchdog found its ads were placed next to content promoting Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party. Disney, Warner Bros Discovery and Comcast, Lions Gate Entertainment and Paramount Global said on Friday they were also pausing their ads on X. Axios reported that Apple would do the same. "Media Matters created an alternate account and curated the posts and advertising appearing on the account's timeline to misinform advertisers about the placement of their posts." Media Matters did not immediately respond to an emailed request seeking comment outside of business hours. Advertisers have fled the site since Musk bought it in October 2022 and reduced content moderation, resulting in a sharp rise in hate speech on X, according to civil rights groups. Mr Musk on Wednesday endorsed an anti-Semitic post on X that falsely claimed members of the Jewish community were stoking hatred against white people. The White House on Friday condemned Elon Musk's endorsement of what it called a "hideous" anti-Semitic conspiracy theory on X. It accused Mr Musk of an "abhorrent promotion of anti-Semitic and racist hate" that "runs against our core values as Americans". "It is unacceptable to repeat the hideous lie … one month after the deadliest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust," White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said, referring to the October 7 attack by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas on Israel.

    First trial of ‘base editing’ in humans lowers cholesterol — but raises safety concerns
    https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-023-03543-z
    The treatment has some side effects: participants experienced brief flu-like symptoms, including fever, headaches and body aches, as well as a temporary increase in liver enzymes, which returned to normal within days. But two of the ten participants experienced cardiovascular events: one died from a heart attack five weeks after receiving VERVE-101, and the other had a heart attack after one day. An independent safety board concluded that the first event was expected in people who had such advanced heart disease and was not related to treatment. The the participant who experienced the second event did not inform the trial investigators of a chest pain which started before the treatment. The board recommended trial enrolment be continued without changes to the drug protocol.
