https://www.npr.org/2025/01/20/nx-s1-5268286/elon-musk-news-site-popular-information News organizations are grappling with how to cover the overwhelming pace of news expected from the return to power of President-elect Donald Trump later today. The lawyer and investigative journalist Judd Legum, founder of the liberal site Popular Information, thinks he has the answer: focus like a laser on Elon Musk, the richest man in the world.
Legum says there will be two issues a week of his publication on Substack, to be called "Musk Watch"; one issue will be dedicated to a deep dive or scoops about Elon Musk, and a second aggregating the reporting of others to capture Musk's actions and activities.
He's hired Caleb Ecarma, formerly a political reporter for Vanity Fair, and hopes to hire more to cover Musk, the chief of SpaceX and Tesla, owner of the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), and now the head of DOGE, a new task force charged with advising Trump on how to radically reorder the federal government.
"I think that he has an unprecedented combination of wealth, of influence across major industries, and of political influence," Legum tells NPR. "We really don't know what the implications of one person having so much influence over a breadth of different areas will be."
Legum says there should be plenty to write about.

I mean it's worked out for them so far hasn't it? Oh wait...

Dazed and Confused, and puriently interested Mon 20 Jan 2025 21:53:25 No. 1375765 Report >>1375534 Excellent pix, OP, although of a gruesome subject matter. It's been rumored that Musky's son, Xavier, ( the preceding dead name was used to avoid confusion)transformed into Vivian, because Musk used him(them) like a girl. Vivian has told friends that her dad said that his dad did it to him, so what he(Musk) was doing to him(them aka Vivian) was OK . The rich are decadent vermin.

>>1375543 >fake news The only thing fake is Elol's credibility after Asmongold called him out about his so-called gaming 'skills'
If Musk's supposedly good at Quake, why doesn't he prove others' opinions about him wrong by he playing DOOM Eternal & the two DLCs in Ultra-Nightmare mode and finish the whole thing without being killed once?
He should be able to do so without prior knowledge of the game.

>>1375765 Not surprising to hear that.
His dad openly admits to having taken him to "naked parties" when he was 9. That in itself could be considered gross negligence boarding on abuse (depending on what actually happened to 9 year old Elon at these swinger shindigs.)

>>1375775 C'mon, kid. Put down that controller, and volunteer at your local senior's home, where you might meet a wealthy 80 yr old. I did, and after getting use to the taste of aged tuna, I got a great inheritance and bought a 20 yr old Ucraneian war widow.

>>1375824 >Trump said 'I got the Pfizer' >Engaged 'Operation Warp Speed' So either Trump will die of the vaccine or antivaxxtards' opinions are proved wrong. But then, there's 1.3 million antivaxxtards dead because they didn't 'Get the Pfizer' and Trump is still alive because he did.
So their opinions are proved wrong regardless.
1.3 million of the rightist population in the US reduced. Their refusal to 'Get the Pfizer' as Trump did will doom them when there's another plague to reduce the rightard population and Pfizer brings out a vaccine against that. Trump will get that one too.

>>1375903 If there is another plague to reduce the right wing population. I'm skeptical.

>>1375553 Just like that biography/documentary that never happened that was suppose to call him out this will likely be a nothing burger.
Elon won the media. They even forgave him for doing the nazi salute within hours. They're talking more about Elon than Trump today!

>>1375906 Well, one reduced that of the US by 1.3 million. Less rightards in the world because they refused a vaccine that their dear leader got?

>>1375909 But that didn't do much, did it? Trump won reelection and while there wasn't a red wave they did take back both chambers of congress. They'd need to kill off way more people to make it change the outcome of elections.
