Elon Musk's Fiery Response to WSJ

Elon Musk, the visionary billionaire and head of the United States Government of Government Efficiency (DOGE), has publicly criticized the Wall Street Journal. He alleges the publication committed an "extremely bad breach of ethics" by publishing a report claiming Tesla's board is on the hunt for a new CEO, a statement Musk and Tesla's board have firmly denied.

Board's Firm Denial

In a swift response, Tesla's official X account, managed by Board Chair Robyn Denholm, labeled the WSJ's report as "absolutely false." This denial was echoed by Musk in a passionate post on X, where he accused the WSJ of ignoring prior communications from Tesla's board, thus misleading the public.

The Controversy Unfolds

The dispute highlights the tension between media outlets and corporate giants, especially when it comes to reporting on leadership changes. Musk's outspoken criticism underscores the importance of ethical journalism and the potential consequences of misleading reports.
