What's your take on yesterday's gem 💎 one liner from Elon Musk 😏?
Reposted from While no one expected Elon Musk to be demure when he spoke at the DealBook Summit yesterday, the crowd appeared stunned into silence when the Tesla and SpaceX CEO started dropping f-bombs.
When asked about advertisers fleeing X in the wake of recent antisemitism scandals, Musk called out Disney CEO Bob Iger, who'd spoken earlier in the day.
"Don't advertise...if someone is going to try and blackmail me with advertising? Blackmail me with money? Go f*** yourself," Musk said.
And while Musk admitted that advertising leaving could "kill the company," he deflected blame, "the whole world will know that those advertisers killed the company...see how Earth responds to that."
