The bans raised a number of questions about the future of the platform, which has been referred to as a digital town square. It also called into serious question Musk's supposed commitment to free speech.
A CNN spokesperson said the company has asked Twitter for an explanation, and it would "reevaluate our relationship based on that response."
The suspensions come after Twitter shut down an account belonging to Mastodon, an emerging competitor, also on Thursday. Musk also blocked any account from linking to such information, as Mastodon did by linking to the account on its platform. CNN's O'Sullivan, too, had been covering the story, having interviewed Sweeney and his grandmother about the issue.
