Say what you want about Musk, but so many people call him an idiot, and that, he certainly is not. Is he eccentric, a womanizer, a rather terrible father, a con man, and weak to the succeptible wiles of fame - yes.

Stupid? No. This man cleverly attached himself to various tech waves that were ahead of the curve and became the richest man in the world because of it. He caught the "government subsidy for electric car" wave and did it far better than Solyndra did, and got stupidly rich off a company that doesn't even make profit. The man is smart, and he knows how to milk an entire country, even world. Buying a media outlet is just part of his PR plan to stay on top.

I mean, he's a terrible person, but most dumb libshits constantly harp on how stupid he is, which is the stupidest criticism you can levy against him when there are so many better criticisms out there.
