Elmo X account hacked, posts 'antisemitic and racist messages,' Sesame Workshop says
"Elmo's X account was briefly compromised yesterday by an unknown hacker who posted disgusting messages, including antisemitic and racist posts. The account has since been secured," a spokesperson for Sesame Workshop, the nonprofit educational organization behind Sesame Street, said in a statement to ABC News on Monday.
The Elmo account usually posts wholesome content in character on X. The hacker posted profanity and racism.
The tweets, which Sesame Workshop said were posted by a hacker, focused on the files allegedly maintained by Jeffrey Epstein.
Horrific posts on the "Sesame Street" character's X account only remained online for a short period, but still went viral.
