Having posted yesterday on a tweet involving Gina Reinhart that had replies turned off I’ve scouted out some tweets from the same source with the reply function still on. This seems to be the default position.
The following tweets had replies enabled. First, one about supermarkets and the competition offered by retailer Aldi.
Next is a tweet about a local Australian Netflix employee.
Next is a women’s health story. Another noncontentious one.
Finally there’s one about vaccines for Covid – potentially contentious but still getting the liberal treatment.
It seems that consumer affairs, health, and industrial relations are less contentious than climate change. The newspaper's editors are obviously concerned about the High Court decision that makes media companies liable for comments on posts they put up. That case resulted from comments left on a Facebook post.
