    When I go to the NTSB’s media relations page, there is one reference to the NTSB Twitter account. It is listed as the way to get the latest updates on investigations. No email mailing list is provided:

    https://www.ntsb.gov/news/Pages/media_resources.aspx

    I get this:

    The NTSB’s Media Relations division may be reached at mediarelations@ntsb.gov — but first check Twitter @ntsb_newsroom​ for the latest updates and information on media briefings and crash investigations.​​

    The thing is, looking at the Wayback Machine, that text seems to have also been the same pre-Trump:

    https://web.archive.org/web/20250104091444/https://www.ntsb.gov/news/Pages/media_resources.aspx

    The NTSB’s Media Relations division may be reached at mediarelations@ntsb.gov — but first check Twitter @ntsb_newsroom​ for the latest updates and information on media briefings and crash investigations.​​

    It’s not entirely clear to me, even after rereading the submitted article’s text, what the policy change was. The article seems to imply that there was some sort of mailing list prior to this point – unless they’re only referencing contacting a human at the listed email address – but if that was the case, I don’t see it listed.
