Musk claims the public hates the media more than him in Texas interview with The Economist editor
During a visit to Tesla's Texas Gigafactory, Elon Musk pushed back against The Economist editor Zanny Minton Beddoes, saying more people hate the media than hate him as she pressed his influence on European politics; Musk touted his large X following to counter criticism, while Beddoes argued that distrust in journalism and polarization on social media fuel public skepticism about both him and the press.
