Elon Musk in trouble on Twitter again – The Wall Street Journal

DUBLIN – Elon Musk, it seems, cannot stay away from Twitter. Or controversy. Or Twitter-based controversies. The Tesla founder published some confusing tweets about his title at Tesla this week, stirring up commentary – particularly in light of the fact that he's supposed to step down as Tesla chair in the next few weeks, per his agreement with the SEC. It's unclear why Musk continues to court social media controversy, especially since the SEC specifically requested that Tesla intervene to manage his social media posting when they settled with him over fraud charges. Perhaps he believes that his loyal fans/shareholders like his cowboy style. Perhaps he hopes to put one over on the shorts he so detests. Perhaps he just can't help himself. Either way, it's an unfortunate distraction from the serious of business of keeping up momentum at Tesla. – Felicity Duncan
