Tesla gets downgraded on Wall Street over Elon Musk’s Twitter antics, banning of journalists Elon Musk’s management of Twitter, including the banning of multiple journalists, has “severely damaged” market sentiment around Tesla, and risks sparking a backlash from advertisers and consumers, a Wall Street analyst warned on Monday. Oppenheimer & Co. downgraded its rating on Tesla, where Musk is the CEO, solely because of risks posed by the billionaire’s ownership and management of Twitter. “We believe Mr. Musk is increasingly isolated as the steward of Twitter’s finances with his user management on the platform, we see potential for a negative feedback loop from departure of Twitter advertisers and users,” Oppenheimer analyst Colin Rusch wrote to clients. https://edition.cnn.com/2022/12/19/business/tesla-stock-downgrade/index.html

Opinion How Elon Musk destroyed Twitter... and how to save it Any owner has the legal prerogative to govern by whim, but owners also bear an ethical responsibility to strike a tricky balance, protecting speech and safety at the same time. Mr. Musk has made a mockery of the enterprise, caring about speech only when it’s his own speech and safety only when it’s his own safety. This is not only an ethical failure but also a business disaster, advertisers have fled Twitter. Journalists are some of Twitter’s most important users, and now they ask themselves whether they should leave the social media platform because they can’t report honestly on one of the richest men in the world without risking banishment. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2022/12/19/elon-musk-twitter-destroyed-fix/

Yet on 11th Dec he said he got rid of them........lol https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1601851685915095040 He didn't care about them when he did the Trump vote

The Poll was pretty clear, not sure how anybody could think otherwise: "Should I step down as head of Twitter? I will abide by the results of this poll." Yes or No

All bets are off. No major announcements by Musk yet, latest tweet a couple of hours ago, changing the rules on the fly because he lost. Lets call it a poll tax........lol https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1604985324505030658

Update on above: Musk just put a search and shadow ban on the Arab DJ/Producer who overheard Musk talk with his Saudi and Qatar investors who suggested that Elon should step down as Twitter CEO. https://twitter.com/iamraisini/status/1604818761277911041

Elon Musk: Twitter users vote in favour of boss resigning Twitter users have voted in favour of Elon Musk stepping down as the platform's chief executive after the billionaire ran a poll on his future. A total of 57.5% voted "yes" after Mr Musk asked his 122 million followers whether he should stand down. In the past Mr Musk has obeyed Twitter polls. He's fond of quoting the phrase "vox populi, vox dei", a Latin phrase which roughly means "the voice of the people is the voice of God". https://www.bbc.com/news/business-your-money-64021412

Poll finished: 57.5% said yes step down 42.5% fanboys voted for him to stay

He missed most physical education teachers are certified and hold a four-year degree in teaching exercise science or related subjects.

If Musk loses on his own platform Republicans will blame "mail in" Twitter votes, "Virtual Drop Boxes" from members of Black Lives Matter and Antifa. Kari Lake might even file a lawsuit. ????

I've been on twitter catching up with facts and breaking news since 2016 I know what it was like, always has been right wing bias and continues to be so, however who you follow is what makes your experience. If you use it for entertainment as you seem to be doing then that's your personal choice, not mine. Censorship by the way now extends to a journalist asking questions directly to Musk and getting suspended as a result. The attempt to block links to all other social media platforms. Suspensions of other journalists for for alleged doxxing that never occurred. Yea great for a laugh!

4 hours left, Tesla investors making multiple twitter accounts now to vote yes Results:

Stating facts and putting things in context that fanboys seem to think is talking down.............

Apparently the Saudi's also asked him to get a new CEO, we know one of Twitters major shareholders is a Saudi. Its notable that the poll started after he left the match. "Just overheard Elon Musk discussing investment opportunities from the Amir of Qatar @TamimBinHamad & other Saudi Royals for his businesses, specifically Twitter,but from their body language & diplomatic response, it didn’t seem very positive. They asked him to find a suitable CEO" https://twitter.com/iamraisini/status/1604619857257025537

He was a co founder until he got sacked. Sure he made money there's no doubting that but it was not his venture alone by far.

No, morals has never been his strongest point

Me talking is not what he has to worry about: Third-largest Tesla stock owner says Elon Musk should step down as CEO Indonesian billionaire KoGuan Leo, the third-largest individual shareholder of electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla, is demanding CEO Elon Musk step down. Leo accuses the eccentric billionaire of focusing too heavily on Twitter, the social media site recently purchased by Musk for over $44 billion. "Elon abandoned Tesla and Tesla has no working CEO," Leo wrote Wednesday on Twitter. "Tesla needs and deserves to have working full time CEO." https://finance.yahoo.com/news/third-largest-tesla-stock-owner-141143515.html

The war mongering was started by Russia, the people suffering is a cause of Russia's illegal invasion: "Peace cannot be reached by a country under attack laying down its arms," "This would not be peace, but occupation." From this years Nobel Peace prize winner.

Elon's stale playbook At Tesla and SpaceX, Elon Musk was a jerk with a grand vision. At Twitter, he's just a jerk. To pay Twitter's bills, Musk will likely have to sell some of his most liquid assets — Tesla shares. This year the stock has fallen by half, and the prospects for growth tech stocks are worsening next year as the Fed continues to raise interest rates. Demand is weakening in China, a huge market for Tesla, and the company brand is hurting as a result of all of Musk's social-media antics. To deal with these headwinds, any competent CEO needs to have a plan. Based on his most recent quarterly calls with investors — the ones where he is supposed to talk about plans to make more money — Musk does not have one. https://www.businessinsider.com/elon-musk-business-playbook-boss-visionary-jerk-spacex-tesla-twitter-2022-12

Oh look, a fanboy. You're common sense is lacking, twitter is not a forum, its a social media platform. This forum allows links to facebook etc. Twitter should allow links to other social networks, if not then legally they are in big trouble. "Twitter and other social media platforms are not traditional publishers, as such publishers have civil and criminal legal liability for the things that they publish. In other words, if Twitter decides to classify itself as a traditional publisher, it would be legally liable for every tweet that is posted on the website. "It appears that you admit that you’re a publisher for purposes of Section 230 of Title 47 of the United States Code," Mariotti explained to Musk. "Have you thought about the consequences of the positions you’re taking, or are you just winging it?" "Any attempt to remove my tweets that link to my other social media accounts, not violating any law, would actually make Twitter an editorial media, and no longer a social media platform, with civil and criminal liability for *any* illegal content therein," he explained. https://www.rawstory.com/elon-musk-twitter-2658980703 Why do you think he apologized? https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1604616863673208832 Are you paying your $8 a month for Musk's version of free speech yet and supporting your hero?

Musk fanboys need to get voting asap, its not looking good for him...... 10 hours left on the vote, results from screenshot just now: https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1604617643973124097 Musk polls Twitter users about whether he should step down Elon Musk is asking Twitter’s users to decide if he should stay in charge of the social media platform after acknowledging he made a mistake Sunday in launching new speech restrictions that sought to ban mentions of rival social media platforms. In yet another drastic policy change, Twitter had announced that users will no longer be able to link to Facebook, Instagram, Mastodon and other platforms the company described as “prohibited.” But the move generated so much immediate criticism, including from past defenders of Twitter’s new billionaire owner, that Musk promised not to make any more major policy changes without an online survey of users. https://apnews.com/article/elon-musk-twitter-inc-technology-business-8dac8ae023444ef9c37ca1d8fe1c14df
