Prince Harry said during a panel discussion that he informed Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey about a "coup" plotting on the social media network ahead of the US Capitol siege on Jan. 6.

"Jack and I were communicating via email prior to Jan. 6," Harry stated Tuesday during a RE: WIRED virtual discussion titled "The Internet Lie Machine."

"I warned him that his issue was allowing for the staging of a coup," he added. "That email was sent the previous day. And then the incident occurred, and I have not heard from him since."

A Twitter spokesman did not respond to a request for comment through email.

Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, both do not have Twitter accounts. Throughout the panel, the Duke of Sussex aimed at the media in general, telling moderator and WIRED editor-at-large Steven Levy that disinformation was an issue in the press as well.

He lashed out at UK publications for allegedly transforming fact-based journalism into gossip.

"I discovered at a young age that the incentives for publishing are not always aligned with the incentives for truth," Harry explained.

"I lost my mother to this self-created rabidity," he remarked, referring to his late mother, Princess Diana. "And, of course, to avoid losing my children's mother to the same thing."
