He made some anti Semitic comments and I thought his account was banned. Maybe it was just a suspension though.

It says that he is locked out of his Twitter account in the article. Isn't that the same thing as being banned?

no, when you are banned, you pretty much cant get your account back. When it is locked, there are steps you can undertake to get access restored (like deleting the offending content).
