No need to try it, you will have no add-ons installed.

I would agree.  The links you gave indicate the problem, but they
aren't clickable, so someone can't just try them, they have to type the
URL from the photo.

I don't have a twitter account, so I won't be able to check that one
with my firefox.  But, I was able to play the rt video in firefox after
I allowed javascript on some third party sites, one of which seemed to
be a media player (I use noscript, so I see the sites that have
javascript blocked).

I wonder if the stock firefox in fedora is preventing third party
javascript by default?

If you don't get satisfaction here, you could also try asking at
mozilla.org, the developers of firefox.
