"Elon Musk's Twitter Confessions and Defamation Denials"

Elon Musk denies knowing Ben Brody, who is suing him for defamation after Musk falsely linked him to a neo-Nazi brawl in a tweet, claiming he has no ill will towards Brody and views the lawsuit as a money-seeking endeavor by the plaintiff's lawyer. Musk filed a motion to dismiss the case, arguing that his tweet did not defame Brody and that it's not defamatory to say someone looks like someone else. Brody's attorney alleges that Musk's post has caused permanent reputational damage and emotional harm, and Musk claims he cannot recall being asked to delete the post, which has not been fact-checked by Community Notes.
