The New York Times Twitter account has lost its blue tick after it said it would not pay to stay verified.
The New York Times has lost its blue tick on Twitter after it said it would not pay to remain verified.
Organisations seeking verification badges instead have to pay a monthly fee of $1,000 to receive a gold verification tick, while individual accounts must pay $8 a month for a blue one. Following the announcement, the newspaper, which has almost 55 million Twitter followers, lost its verification badge.
Since December, Twitter has introduced three different coloured verification badges: gold ticks are used for business organisations, grey ticks are for government-affiliated accounts or multilateral organisations, and blue ticks are used for individual accounts.
