I want to believe that Elon is crazy like a fox and this has been his intent the whole time. I guess we'll see.

How do you know he doesn't already have hard evidence?
even if he does not, twitter is not a criminal court.

If he has then he should come forward with it. Otherwise it's just hearsay and he's making even more enemies than he has.
Did you even read the tweet?
Elon is not (directly) making the accusation, he asked for her response to someone's direct claim of their interaction.
When playing chess, my money is on the guy building reusable rockets and not some third rate financial reporter.
I think it is very telling that Lopez has retweeted people saying that she would never pay/bribe a source, but she has not actually denied it herself. So she isn't staying silent, she just isn't denying it. I know that doesn't prove guilt, but it sure makes her look guilty. (Just like taking the 5th when testifying on the stand.)
The reporter in question follows Tesla hit pieces with requests for employees and customers to provide information. After each of several separate articles, I responded by politely asking the reporter nothing more than whether positive Tesla information would be appreciated. No replies have been received. I'll not ask again.
What would be more powerful is if everyone on here that has twitter demands a response from her employer! They need to be held accountable just like any of us would be held had we practice dishonest tactics.
All this is making Tesla look worse.
And now we have Melissa Lee saying that Lopez lied in one of her 2014 articles. Seems to hurt her credibility some.
Let the lawyers deal with this and have EM go back to making cars, batteries and solar tiles. You know, the Mission Statement kinda stuff.
I am a long time contributor and bull. If you read this IR or EM: Profit=Steak. As a friend of mine says 'the rest is just noise' Just do it. ( I have faith you can )

Hello mr. Trump! Nice of you to visit this forum
Not enough spelling errors and weird capitalization... And not enough single-syllable all-caps last words (i.e. SAD).
Content, however, is overall of similar quality.
Although it is a pleasant thought, I do not "vote" that Trump is behind this avian alias.

Pass the popcorn. You can not make this stuff up. Love me a good unfolding drama.
I wish that instead of all this tweeting Elon would just say: look it's end of week 1 in July and we just made 5k+ new M3's in the last 7 days. Then there would be no need for these Twitter wars. Couple more weeks like that and most shorts would be out.

Potato potatoh. When asking these kind of questions a person is obviously implying positive response. Technically it's just an innocent question, but that's lawyers talk. Even if not directly, he is making the accusation. And if that accusation doesn't have any ground or is just a retweet or follow up from some random person on the Internet, then that's even worse. And then he continues bashing her with further tweets. And some of them are even wrong (see this thread: Elon Musk on Twitter ). If hearsay is all he has then he really shouldn't be attacking another person like that publicly.
Well, at this point I actually hope he's able to prove the connection between Tripp, Linette and Chanos.
Such a story would immediately justify all his recents twitter wars, other media would talk about it and maybe there would be apologies (sincere or not, I don't care, but CNBC or Reuters publocly apologizing would be important).
I think the connection is actually there, but we need it to be proved, otherwise media will always spin it like they do all the time.
And that could give him the possibility to do the grand gesture and not pursue Tripp or Linette, but Chanos himself (that IMO would be Game Set Match, and huge PR).

I disagreed for the simple reason BI and CNBC are not friendly territory therefore disadvantage Elon. No matter what he says there’s a better than 75%+ chance it’ll be twisted and spun in under 24 hours.
On Twitter he can control his narrative. He has 20+ million followers, he can block anyone he wants and he can’t be ‘edited’ by anyone but himself (and Twitter if he breaks their rules).
Some people disagree with how he’s conducting himself, but not one of those people have ever walked a mile in his shoes. And until they do, it’s just another opinion in a sea of opinions that carry no weight.

I hope he’s got someone else tweeting for him at times, but doubt it. Better yet would be Karpatthy writing a Twitter AI for 90% of his tweets, just to keep his enemies off balance and thinking he’s wasting his time.
