Just because he's talking more doesn't mean he's saying anything. If Elon was genuine he wouldn't be critizised so much for being a lying shit. Ge literally got fucked by a state agency for manipulating markets with all the "genuine" words he put out there in the past years
Really, I don't disagree with Elon's approach but he uses rhetorical tricks common to politicians. He uses quite a few rhetorical devices to get out of answering questions he doesn't want to discuss. To be clear I'm not criticising Elon this is what public figures need to do but he approaches this interview as a media trained figure and deploys rhetorical devices often used in interviews that might involve questions that will involve information you don't want to reveal but these are very much the tools of politicians. Like the tone is a bit more casual and shoot from the hip but other than that to my eye a politician under fire could sound a lot like this.
Tbf this is normal for the BBC. The issue is playing devil's advocate when you don't have basic facts and figures to back up your accusations then you end up looking like a biased tool, like this guy.
I'm not entirely certain, given the enlightenment of the last decade, that any of the news media has ever been trusted, respected, or impartial. They've simply been incredibly successful in convincing their audiences that they were.

This is why Musk is a genius: basically what he has done here is set up an interview knowing that the BBC would try to do a hatchet job on him and then used this to expose the BBC for their misinformation and brainwashing while highlighting his point that freedom of speech is more important now than ever. Probably the best interview I've seen.
actually this guy showed up unannounced at Twitter headquarters and asked for an interview with Elon fully expecting to be turned down but to his surprise Elon agreed and live streamed it on Twitter. otherwise we would have never seen complete footage as BBC edited out the whole thing and aired like 5 minutes of this
The interviewer was an absolute tool. NEVER and I mean NEVER go up against a genius without doing any homework. I'm a Brit and I'm ashamed of this reporter and the BBC.
Elon has exposed how third class "journalist" have become, gone are the days when journalist had integrity and could ask "real" questions.... Elon is the way forward and kudos to him for exposing this charlatan.
Years ago Musk had a dispute with the BBC about the way Top Gear represented the Tesla car used by Top Gear, it was quite damaging to Tesla. He accused them of outright lying. That is almost certainly what he was referring to in this interview but he did not actually mention it. I like Clarkson and Top Gear even if they did lie then. The fact Musk didn't mention it. He is a class act really. It is strange that the BBC were given the chance to have an interview with a man who is achieving so much on a planetary level, he is really in the elite of people on the planet and they set the interview up to go this way? Such a waste opportunity for them.
The fact that the interviewer said he has not used twitter in 3 weeks before this interview says it all. If you're going to be interviewing the CEO of twitter about how its going since he took over, but you aren't going to use the platform/app 3 weeks prior to the interview is absurd!! I take my hat off to Elon, he came to the interview more prepared than this BBC clown and could have could have embarrassed the reporter even further but didn't. Elon is a true gentleman!
He's job is not to test Twitter. Also, how much notice do you think he got before the interview? Because you sound like you think it was at least 3 weeks...
@But he should've come up with something solid cause he's interviewing him.

@@ravenking2458 Yeah, should have but he couldn't. But that's not a reason to congratulate Elon, unless someone thinks his job is to out BS reporters. On a side note: the reporter said he was given a short notice so no wonder he couldn't prepare better. On another side note, while Elon was lying/avoiding the question about advertisers and claimed that "most of them" are or will be back on board soon, 2-3 months later Twitter ad revenues are officially down 50%. What a genius!
22:55 is the momemt that he questions the BBC about vaccine injury. Every major media outlet ignored this part, just as the interviewer ignored the question, but it's another step towards being able to have this conversation as a society.
Oh man, this is one of the most infuriating interviews I have ever seen. Feels like the interviewer has a list of accusations and he just goes through them and doesn't really even listen to the answers. Then when Elon has an answer he seems annoyed.
Absolutely destroyed this interviewer, really well countered by Elon and so psychologically great, his BS meter is remarkable, he deserves my respect here...
*Summary* Clayton: "I've seen more hateful content." Elon: "Name one." Clayton: "I don't actually use that feed anymore...Let's move on!" Clayton's career is over 😂😂😂 BBC is such a joke!
This man is really showing why he is so successful his communication skills logics and way of conduct is so humble that he was slapping him in his face and he has nothing to say Elon is really a person who answers the hypocrisy of bbc with silence of the reporter 😂😂😂
This guy wasn’t listening to a word Elon was saying, he had his own agenda from the get go, and he kept twitching and itching to ask the next loaded question.
This is the most bad faith interview I’ve seen in a while. The number of times this interviewer cut Elon off and changed subjects, aggressively, was ludicrous
BBC gets a full hour with Elon Musk and they send in this clown who did nothing to prepare for it? He is so unprepared . . . it's kind of stupefying to watch.
You may like Elon Musk or you may not, but I believe that if you get the chance of an interview with him you should approach this opportunity very well-aware of having in front of you someone who can arguably be considered one of the smartest men alive. This kid showed arrogance and wasn’t well-prepared for the task.
I love that when Elon asked him to give an example of "hate speech", the interviewer went into a Porky Pig imitation. "Ba dee buh dee buh dee.....That's all folks!"
@@desertsdestiny5483 I hadn't trusted Elon Musk of recent years, but actually feel that buying Twitter has changed something about him.

These Musk interviews are so funny lol. They have no idea how to interview him. Musk is an engineer, scientist, etc. he thinks super logical. You can’t stump a guy like that lol.
This interviewer is definitely on some pretty strong stuff. He’s like a mascot for everything that’s wrong with society. Surprised he’s not wearing a mask and shouting pronouns.
If this journalist's plan was to show Elon Musk in a bad light, then the result has been the complete opposite. Well done, Elon, because I am now a fan !
I think his intolerance for bullshit has a lot to do with how he became so rich. It was glorious how he nailed the journalist to the cross about his "I've personally seen more hate" line. I shudder to think how many of Elon's employees have been grilled like that over the years.
Leftism believes that dishonorable rhetorically formulated antithetical propositions (even when complete bullshit) are always to be forgiven their fault because they serve the holy praxis of accelerating the contradictions 'comrade'. This is key to understand the 'culture war'. NO they are not embarrassed by lying and hypocrisy. The are true inheritors of Vladimir Lenin's political philosophy of ultimate tactical flexibility: violate any principle in the short term to achieve your long term objective. Exhibit A: Sam Harris even yesterday doubling down on his unprincipled bullshit (also trying to take the BBC's side claiming ignorance of the subject where it helps his arguments at the same time as broadcasting his toxic opinions). Lying pieces of shit, all of them. If you don't get that, you don't understand the philosophic foundations of the Left. They believe they serve a higher purpose than such petty things as 'truth' or 'morality'.
Absolutely shocking interviewer. Very rare we get to watch an interview with Elon these days, BBC should’ve shown some respect and sent the best they had 🤦🏻♂️
“Do you value free speech over hate speech?” That question in and of itself is preposterous. You may as well be asking me if I value gravity over flat earth theory.
Unlike a politician, he actually tries to answer every question the reporter throws at him. This is what a genuine person looks like.
Really? Ask him when fsd is coming out? Then you will see how genuine he really is…
Just because he's talking more doesn't mean he's saying anything. If Elon was genuine he wouldn't be critizised so much for being a lying shit. Ge literally got fucked by a state agency for manipulating markets with all the "genuine" words he put out there in the past years

In other words, we've just witnessed a prime example why you shouldn't play semantic games with Elon or get ready to get steamrolled.
semantics can be interesting arguments. this was just a pathetic attempt at gaslighting.
This could only be better if the Bill Clinton Kid had taken Elon's place for this interview.
Elon is a genuine, righteous, smart person. Don’t try to put a man like this in the corner. It won’t work out for you.
Do you actually know who you are talking to? Do you actually? 🥴🥴.........😂
So much respect to Elon.. Talking to someone who tries to drag you down is very exhausting. An interview should be informative for us. Not a battle
The reporter did a terrible, terrible job here. Opportunity of a lifetime to speak to Musk and he messed it up.
@@PeacefulBrit and came woefully unprepared. It was pathetic
But he gave us the opportunity to laugh at him

I watch BBC regularly for over 5years. I have never seen this guy. At some level it feels to me like this interview is sort of staged.
Elon speaking in pure plain English: “You just lied!” 💀 😂
Elon kept referring back to BBC, and laughing at his own 🍆 joke. Absolute Legend
thanks champ, I knew the BBC wouldn't release the full interview!

You could at least hire a competent interviewer for interviewing this great man
He messed up big time. And also twitter has definitely been better under Elon than pre Elon.
Dishonesty can’t win honesty… this is why Elon won every second of this interview.

Media interpretation of this interview - “Elon tells BBC about painful Twitter takeover”
EVERYONE else - “BBC journalist gets owned by Elon”
Only difference between BBC and CNN is the accent. Name one offensive tweet, just one. Do your homework BBC. Be honest. Amateur hour.

Terrible journalism! Maybe Elon should takeover the BBC and sack him.
"free speech is meaningless, unless you let people you don't like, say things you don't like"
