The advertisers bailing makes sense to me. They don't advertise on porn or extremist web sites/apps, so they are waiting to see if Twitter descends into a not safe for work cesspool, or if it becomes basically what it is now but with more features.

It was already all of that under the old .gov compromised guard and the advertisers apparently thought that was fine and dandy.They don't advertise on porn or extremist web sites/apps, so they are waiting to see if Twitter descends into a not safe for work cesspool

So a good interviewer wouldn't ask about Tesla car fires? Remember the original "gotcha" question was asking someone what they read..."Gotcha" questions are not good questions. Typically they are "leading" questions. "How do you explain all the Teslas that have caught on fire?" is a "gotcha" question. It's not a challenging question to answer because Tesla didn't do anything wrong like purposely adding substances in their cars to make them catch on fire more than usual. So there's nothing controversy about it besides forcing you to be defensive by saying "well gas cars catches on fire 10x more". But you see how even with a correct response, it doesn't paint Tesla in a positive light because..gotcha!.
He also laid off a huge number of employees who sell advertising and support customers.The advertisers bailing makes sense to me.

A good interviewer would have done some research and only tries to ask questions that may end up with new revelations. Maybe the company is hiding something because x, y, z doesn't add up. Topics like Tesla fires are not controversial because a simple research will lead you to the conclusion that gas cars are way more likely to catch on fire. So by asking the question, you are leading the audience into thinking the opposite because their assumption is that you are a good interviewer who have done research and is investigating why x, y, and z doesn't add up. So now the audience thinks Teslas are very likely to catch on fire...so what gives hmmm Mr. Musk? And when Musk points out that gas cars are way more likely to catch on fire, the audience now thinks Musk is deflecting and lying about the REAL truth why Tesla catches on fire all the time.So a good interviewer wouldn't ask about Tesla car fires?

That is unfortunately not true.I could tell from the last time Swisher interviewed Elon several years ago that she hated him even then. She kept asking annoying gotcha questions that Tesla investors are very familiar with.
You don’t need 7,500 people to run Twitter.He also laid off a huge number of employees who sell advertising and support customers.
The real question is why Elon is friends with the person responsible for it?Curious why advertisers were okay with Twitter 1.0 which had child pornography and child trafficking hashtags?
Or asking the question gives a chance for the CEO to clearly state his counter arguments in an easy to understand manner, counteracting the false headline impressions. Jurors are also swayed by clearly stated facts in a response.A good interviewer would have done some research and only tries to ask questions that may end up with new revelations.

It's a technique used by lawyers all the time to sway the jurors.

4. Elon regaining his sanity. OK, only half kidding. But, a related idea, if Tesla can show that it can outperform and innovate despite Elon's side hustles, investors may begin to view Tesla as a juggernaut that can't be stopped no matter the distractions. That's what I'm wishfully thinking at least. On the other hand, if Tesla's performance disappoints in any way, it'll feed the narrative that a distracted Elon is dragging down Tesla. Whether or not you agree with this, clearly investors overall are concerned about this. Just look at the SP pop a few months back when Elon tried to back out of buying Twitter.Hate to go off topic but I’ve been trying to wonder what gets TSLA back to $300/ sh.
What I have so far
1. Waiting for forward PE to support $300 at this level (e.g. ~55% higher earnings adjusting for any stock dilutions or buy backs)
2. Growth substantially above current expectations - which is less than 50% y/y - so maybe a 15-20% quarterly upside surprise
3. Surprise expansion story - new 3/Y factory, Texas & Berlin ramp, new $25$-$30k model, CT deliveries
Anything else?

It's funny. People keep talking about this but I have seen no evidence of any of it. These mythical hashtags.Curious why advertisers were okay with Twitter 1.0 which had child pornography and child trafficking hashtags?

I don't generally use twitter before the take over, but all these people claiming that porn is everywhere or whatever are just trolls. Looking at some of the porn names they have over half a million followers. They didn't get that many followers in the past 3 weeks. So porn has always been on twitter from what I can tell.that is a good counterpoint. I guess the question is whether Twitter becomes worse or better from a brand safety perspective. I think at this point they are taking a wait and see approach. I don't think it has anything to do with Elon's claims about "free speech"
Problems that plagued old Twitter. Try again.because some of the ones that have bailed mentioned "brand safety", and I don't think porn and extremist web sites/apps fall into the "brand safety" net.
