In a surprising late-night interview, Elon Musk got down on a columnist from the English Telecom Company or BBC, James Clayton, for lying about how much disdain discourse on Twitter.

Subsequent to assuming command over Twitter, Musk has been making various changes to the stage. Furthermore, perhaps of the latest one included him marking the BBC as a “administration subsidized media” outlet. In spite of the fact that it is nothing unexpected that the BBC charges citizens a yearly permitting expense, the media house didn’t especially appreciate being marked by Musk thusly. Twitter later changed the name to ‘freely financed.’

Not long after this debate, Clayton, BBC’s North America tech correspondent, packed away a meeting with Musk. The offhand meeting was led at the Twitter base camp in San Francisco and broadcast live on Twitter Spaces. While Musk responded to various inquiries, generally spinning around Twitter, one specific inquiry appeared to have perplexed him.

Clayton asked the Tesla pioneer to answer guarantees that disdain discourse had become uncontrolled on Twitter since his takeover. Musk tested and inquired as to whether he had seen more disdain discourse himself. Clayton changed his expressing and said that he had gone over ‘derisive content’ which included ‘marginally chauvinist’ remarks. At this, Clayton was asked by Musk to provide him with an illustration of the hostile content that he guaranteed that he had seen. Clayton neglected to do as such.

Musk answered: “I say sir that you don’t have a clue… since you can’t provide me with a solitary illustration of scornful content, not a single one tweet. You asserted that derisive content is high. That is bogus, you recently lied.”
