Twitter logo designer: "It had an incredible run"

Elon Musk has changed the name of Twitter and killed off its famous blue bird logo, replacing it with an 'X' symbol. The change is part of Mr Musk's ambition to create a "super app" called X - his vision for a new kind of social media platform that he has been talking about creating for months.

The old logo's designer Martin Grasser reflected on the change with Newshour's Paul Henley.
