Elon Musk hasn't yet learned or possibly accepted that words matter. He can swear if he wants, but context that he is worth more than $200 billion matters.

The context that Musk confusingly and baselessly claims advertisers backing away is “blackmail”, while true, does not correct or clarify anything that is misleading, so doesn’t warrant a note.

This post intentionally leaves out important context outside the readable area of the post to create controversy, and engagement, while walking it somewhat back in the "read more" section. it is a variation of the title hook, which is commonly used in news sites.
