Twitter is so desperate for advertisers that it’s offering to match ads up to $250,000
Musk’s Twitter continues its downward spiral. The latest? The platform is offering to match advertisers up to $250,000 in a desperate plea for ad buyers to return, reports The Wall Street Journal.
In order for brands to cash in on the incentive, the full $500,000 in advertising must run by Feb. 28. And this isn’t Twitter’s first attempt to lure advertisers back, in December, Twitter offered $500,000 of free ads to brands that spent $500,000 with a $1 million cap.
The social media platform has lost many of its top advertisers since Musk took over, a huge blow considering ninety percent of Twitter’s revenue comes from advertising. Media Matters reported in November, just a month after Musk’s reign began, that 50 of the top 100 advertisers have fled the platform. Some advertisers reduced their ad spending quietly, while others like Chevrolet, Chipotle, Ford, and Jeep issued statements about their decision to leave.
Twitter also announced that it will allow political ads back on its platform after banning them in 2019, further evidence of Twitter’s desperation for ad revenue.
Next thing you know Twitter will be enlisting sign-twirlers to get advertisers back.

Rylan fights back tears as he loses £250,000 for charity on Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win
RYLAN was seen fighting back tears after losing £250,000 alongside David Walliams on Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win.
The Strictly: It Takes Two presenter appeared on the quiz show alongside Walliams in the name of raising money for charity.

Together, the pair did remarkably well on the ladder game, passing through the £250,000 mark with a chance to reach the half-million in the endless game.
However, after failing to lock-in what they’d earned and choosing to continue instead of walking away with the £75,000 at risk, they ran out of lives and ended up with nothing.
When asked “how many weeks does it take for a tadpole to turn into a frog?” Rylan and Walliams got debating, before giving their answer with just seconds on the clock spare.
But Rylan seemed to know immediately he’d gone wrong, joking with the audience: “Is this the way out?” while Ant McPartlin scolded them for the intense moment and telling them: “This is supposed to be Christmas Day viewing you know!”
Unfortunately they were too far out of their answer to make it through to the next stage, and their £75,000 gamble failed, and they didn’t reach the £250,000 mark.
The pair looked devastated as the money was taken away from them and they were left with nothing but a £1,000 token prize each for their chosen charities.
Both looked visibly upset, with Rylan appearing close to tears as he tried to put a positive spin on the whole scenario.
“We’re so gutted, so gutted. We did our best. It’s been amazing coming on and we’re just gutted we can’t take home more for the charities.
But they’re getting at least a little something, so we’re grateful, and if anything we’ve at least raised awareness for both of them.
Why would you play that game? Unless you keep tadpoles at home, don’t play that question.
“We needed more lives. We should’ve cashed out.”
David Walliams was playing for Alzheimers Research UK in tribute to late friend Dame Barbara Windsor, and Rylan was playing for Chrons and Colitis UK in honour of his mum.
Ant and Dec’s Limitless Win returns January 7th on ITV.

Starfield features over 250,000 lines of dialogue, which is more than Skyrim and Fallout 4 combined
Bethesda has released a new video called Constellation Questions, and it features Todd Howard answering questions about Starfield.
The video goes over whether or not the game can be considered “hard sci-fi”, how games such as Sundog: Frozen Legacy and pen-and-paper RPG Traveller inspired the team behind Starfield, and how the fuel in your ship and the gravity drive limits how far you can go at once.
It’s all very interesting, but one of the biggest talking points in the video relates to the trait and dialogue systems.
