It's this kind of transparently biased trash journalism why folks hate the MSM.

The dude literally sided with a leader who threatened to nuke the United States. Putin is a a man with such a profound hatred of Americans he built a doomsday weapon like some villain in a comic book whose sole purpose is to irradiate the US coast so it is uninhabitable.

What makes it trash journalism? Is it false? Is Musk beyond criticism in this area?

Musk is one of the only individuals in the world that actively tries to solve real problems. And people hate him for it. Musk gives Ukraine Star Link terminals and access. The idea that he is league w Putin and his ideas is intellectually dishonest and betrays any kind of objective view.

The article is largely factual. If somebody hates the MSM for articles like this... let them.

Do you have a more substantive complaint?

The article has several conflicts with the recent NYT article and also earlier contemporary reporting

Really would like to hear your argument about how this article that directly quotes Musk on the issue is somehow "biased trash journalism"

The parallels with Trump keep multiplying. Putin knows how to deal with greedy, shallow infantile billionaires with more power than they deserve.
