There are way too many "journalists" frothing at the mouth over Elon, because he doesn't fit their ideal of a "billionaire". Their writing displays almost a juvenile bitterness that I remember seeing in a teenagers rage rant. It's kinda sad.
Twitter has always been loved, and promoted (tweet us @) by media because its both an excellent source of news, allows easy engagement with news, and allows news to spread.
Twitter is quite literally the saviour of media, providing a crucial link between print and digital eras.
Now Elon is killing Twitter. Hell hath no fury like that of a journalist scorned.
As users stop using Twitter (perhaps even stop using X), where does it leave those to whom X is the literal source of their own value chain?
Like a jilted lover, Elon is the (really easy) scapegoat. (Who seems intent on driving them away...)
His failing and why people gravitate so much to him is that he is loud and public.
