it appears these journalists reported that the LAPD has no police report around the alleged stalking incident at the los angeles airport, which i assume he didn’t want to trend

Elon tweeted and posted a video about that incident asking for help to identify the perp. Why would he do that if he didn't want it to trend?
I'm not the OP. I think the tweet the OP is referring to is not Elon's video of a man in a car. Instead, it is the tweet by Donie O'Sullivan where he published a statement from LAPD saying that no crime report had been filed in regards to the interaction Elon described.

The implication is that perhaps Elon is lying.

I'm not saying that he's lying. But Donie's account hadn't, unlike other journalists who got suspended, tweeted screenshots that showed how to find ElonJet on other platforms.

So it's not clear to me what he did to get suspended. His most recent tweets were to an interview he did with the ElonJet guy [1] and the tweet from the LAPD saying there was no criminal report.

Maybe the interview was "bad" enough to trigger the doxxing policy due to giving notoriety to the account? But if so, yikes.

Apologies if I got confused.

If your argument is correct then I tend to agree with you.
