Factor 1 - low-effort production<p>> Here’s how it works: Too many editors are eager to assign an easy-to-assemble story from the components of a Musk prediction, threat or stunt.<p>Factor 2 - high demand<p>> And readers seem to love the copy.<p>Luckily, most articles can easily be avoided, because their headlines contain his or one of his companies’ name. But what a waste of human brain capacity and attention.
I thought the article was just going to say: "Twitter".<p>He captured the pulpit and town square they've ( " The Media™ " ) used for promoting their stories outside of the publishing entity.<p>He stole their juice and just poured it all out on the ground out of spite.
I never understood why people didn’t seem to figure this out…The likes of Elon Musk, Donald Trump, Kayne West, AOC, etc, are professional attention seekers.<p>They always ensure to give their opinions on current things just to remain in the news cycle. Many of this kind don’t even think about or believe what they say…it’s all to get attention, and, boy, do the media give them a lot of it.<p>The more perceived negative attention they get, the more their reputation is elevated with their base. Trump was the one who perfected this model to an unbelievable point.<p>The best is to ignore this kind and not give them attention, which is their driving force.
