标题: 每日外刊 |强势回归!特朗普自创社交平台即将上线
背景知识
当地时间10月20日,特朗普宣布,将推出自己的社交媒体App“真实社交”(TRUTH Social)。特朗普表示,这款应用程序将“对抗 Twitter 和 Facebook 等禁止他使用其平台的大型技术公司的暴政”。特朗普还说:“现在在Twitter上你随处可见塔利班的声音,但你最喜欢的美国总统却被噤声。这是不可接受的。”“我很高兴能很快在TRUTH Social上发布我的第一个TRUTH。这家媒体的使命是为所有人发声,反击大型技术公司。” 他说。据称,TRUTH Social将于下个月推出测试版,并于2022年第一季度全面推出。目前,这款应用已经可以在苹果App Store中预定。据报道,“真实社交”平台将通过由特朗普媒体和技术集团和一家SPAC公司DWAC合并而成的新公司创建。特朗普媒体与技术集团(TMTG)表示,目前与DWAC已达成最终合并协议,进行业务合并,资本市场立即给出强烈回应。受此消息影响,周四SPAC公司DWAC的股价和成交量双双暴涨。

特朗普宣布社交媒体平台推出计划(强势回归!特朗普自创社交平台即将上线)

Former President Donald Trump announced Wednesday he will be launching his very own media network, including a social media platform called “TRUTH Social,” in order to “stand up to the tyranny of Big Tech.” The app appears to be the first project of the Trump Media and Technology Group (TMTG), which will list on the Nasdaq through a merger with Digital World Acquisition Group, according to an announcement tweeted out by spokeswoman Liz Harrington. The transaction values TMTG at up to $1.7 billion, Harrington said.
美国前总统唐纳德·特朗普周三宣布,他将推出自己的媒体网络,其中包括一个名为“TRUTH Social”的社交媒体平台,以“对抗科技巨头的暴政”。根据发言人利兹·哈灵顿在推特上发布的一份声明,这款应用似乎是特朗普媒体科技集团(TMTG)的第一个项目,TMTG将通过与数字世界收购集团合并在纳斯达克上市。哈灵顿表示,这笔交易对TMTG的估值高达17亿美元。

The new company, which lists Trump’s private membership club Mar-A-Lago as its address, will be chaired by the former president, who says that this “group’s mission is to create a rival to the liberal media consortium.” Trump was notoriously banned by major social media giants earlier this year, following his posts related to the January 6 riots at the United States Capitol Building.
这家新公司将特朗普的私人会员俱乐部海湖庄园列为其地址,将由这位前总统担任董事长,他表示,该组织的使命是创建一个与自由媒体集团相抗衡的公司。今年早些时候,特朗普因发布与1月6日美国国会大厦骚乱有关的帖子而臭名昭著地被主要社交媒体巨头封杀。

The move doesn’t come as a total surprise. Trump and his team of advisors have dropped hints for months that he might launch his own social media app to rival Facebook and Twitter. According to the press release, TRUTH Social is currently available for pre-order in the Apple App store, and a beta version will be available to invited guests starting in November 2021. A nationwide rollout is expected in the first quarter of 2022, the release said.
此举并不完全出人意料。几个月来,特朗普和他的顾问团队一直在暗示,他可能会推出自己的社交媒体应用,与Facebook和Twitter竞争。据该新闻稿称,TRUTH Social目前可以在苹果应用商店进行预订,并将于2021年11月向受邀嘉宾开放测试版。该新闻稿称,这款应用预计将于2022年第一季度在全国推广。
