    Imagine posting hit pieces like this and only having 125 views after 20 minutes while thinking your journalism is relevant.

    “He smoked Marijuana on Joe rogan podcast… ” if hadn’t seen that particular podcast I would have brought the Elon junkie narrative that you guys are peddling.. Damn.. Disappointed… Won’t be following Bloomberg from now, thought you people had an incentive in promoting facts considering the tools that you sell. Guess I was wrong. Bye.

    Completely made up story.
    Man has top secret clearance through NASA. Weed was not illegal when and where he smoked it 5 years ago. He Is not on any drugs. This is just stock suppression and bull for views.

    He’s not an alcoholic
    While most executives I’ve met certainly are
    He’s not a coke head
    While most millionaires tend to be
    He’s running multiple successful worldwide companies
    While you sit on your butt reporting about people who are successful

    So what’s the problem here
    The report or the reporting?

    Obviously Elon has stepped on some toes and the WSJ, the shill propaganda outlet that it is, is doing it’s job to smear and tarnish his name.

    Who’s this guy in the purple jacket in the blue shirt with the irresponsible reporting on the medication the FDA has reported as clinically evident to treat depression. This guy called it a club drug which it can be however when prescribed by a doctor is not a club drug it’s not a party drug it’s clinically proven through research to treat depression as well as post-traumatic stress disorder, panic disorder in various other clinical conditions. This is specifically why I watched no media I just stumbled upon this because I was interested in CES but your organization is trash and I subscribe to nothing, not Disney, no cable outlets, I don’t watch national or local news because it’s trash. Nothing in the media will change until journalists have a code of ethics, but your organizations are so corrupt that’ll never happen.
