Alternatively, Elon knows exactly what they're going to report because they probably did the usual journalist thing of warning him beforehand that a big story was coming. But because he's an idiot who can't do anything other than the worst possible response to anything, Elon's whining about "for pay" models (:ironicat:).

if they're trying to get ahead of this before the article is even out then it might be pretty bad so they gotta spin up the anger machine pretty quickly

Musk has inroads with weird sad technocrat types and weird /pol/ types

And yet polling says Zoomers are preferring Trump to Biden. So either young people want to see the world burn (probable) or polling is completely broken.

I can't imagine a young person voting for the side that's actively taking away rights they're most likely to want, but hey it's 2023 so...

Media Matters is a non-profit and therefore cannot be trusted because they take money from Soros.

NewsGuard is for profit and therefore cannot be trusted because they take money from corporations.

Both non profit and for profit groups are saying that my sword is very small and my enemies are alive.

This cannot be father from the truth. Their bias makes them incapable of understanding that my sword is the longest that has ever lived, and my enemies have filled graveyards.

Those who underestimate the truth of my danger will find themselves ruing the day they ever gave into the woke mind virus.

personally, I find NewsGuard a little odd as a company that has former CIA/NSA Director Michael Hayden, Bush's DHS Sec Tom Ridge and former Finnish PM / NATO SecGen Anders Rasmussen on their board along with Department of Defense contracts, so I am reluctant to call them an 'independent' media watchdog group. Wikipedia's Jimmy Wales is probably their most well known and trusted board member.

find it hilarious that Elon is going with the 'for-profit' angle rather than the above
