Misleading claims about the gunman who killed eight people at a Dallas-area shopping center are swirling on Twitter, thanks in part to the platform's owner, Elon Musk.
Musk has questioned whether the man identified by authorities as the shooter, Mauricio Garcia, really had an account on a Russian social media platform, and Musk suggested that revelations about the shooter's background could be a “psyop,” or psychological operation, in which the public is misled about the real details of the shooting.
Musk also cast doubt on a Netherlands-based research group known as Bellingcat that released information about Garcia's online history when he tweeted that it “specializes in psychological operations.” He offered no evidence to support his claim, but the attack led to a barrage of harassment directed at Bellingcat from Musk's online fans.
