Just because he's talking more doesn't mean he's saying anything. If Elon was genuine he wouldn't be critizised so much for being a lying shit. Ge literally got fucked by a state agency for manipulating markets with all the "genuine" words he put out there in the past years
Really, I don't disagree with Elon's approach but he uses rhetorical tricks common to politicians. He uses quite a few rhetorical devices to get out of answering questions he doesn't want to discuss. To be clear I'm not criticising Elon this is what public figures need to do but he approaches this interview as a media trained figure and deploys rhetorical devices often used in interviews that might involve questions that will involve information you don't want to reveal but these are very much the tools of politicians. Like the tone is a bit more casual and shoot from the hip but other than that to my eye a politician under fire could sound a lot like this.
This is why Musk is a genius: basically what he has done here is set up an interview knowing that the BBC would try to do a hatchet job on him and then used this to expose the BBC for their misinformation and brainwashing while highlighting his point that freedom of speech is more important now than ever. Probably the best interview I've seen.
actually this guy showed up unannounced at Twitter headquarters and asked for an interview with Elon fully expecting to be turned down but to his surprise Elon agreed and live streamed it on Twitter. otherwise we would have never seen complete footage as BBC edited out the whole thing and aired like 5 minutes of this
The interviewer was an absolute tool. NEVER and I mean NEVER go up against a genius without doing any homework. I'm a Brit and I'm ashamed of this reporter and the BBC.
Tbf this is normal for the BBC. The issue is playing devil's advocate when you don't have basic facts and figures to back up your accusations then you end up looking like a biased tool, like this guy.
The fact that the interviewer said he has not used twitter in 3 weeks before this interview says it all. If you're going to be interviewing the CEO of twitter about how its going since he took over, but you aren't going to use the platform/app 3 weeks prior to the interview is absurd!! I take my hat off to Elon, he came to the interview more prepared than this BBC clown and could have could have embarrassed the reporter even further but didn't. Elon is a true gentleman!
He's job is not to test Twitter. Also, how much notice do you think he got before the interview? Because you sound like you think it was at least 3 weeks...
@But he should've come up with something solid cause he's interviewing him.

@@ravenking2458 Yeah, should have but he couldn't. But that's not a reason to congratulate Elon, unless someone thinks his job is to out BS reporters. On a side note: the reporter said he was given a short notice so no wonder he couldn't prepare better. On another side note, while Elon was lying/avoiding the question about advertisers and claimed that "most of them" are or will be back on board soon, 2-3 months later Twitter ad revenues are officially down 50%. What a genius!
I'm not entirely certain, given the enlightenment of the last decade, that any of the news media has ever been trusted, respected, or impartial. They've simply been incredibly successful in convincing their audiences that they were.
@@rachelstephens3656 While it's true that they always lied to some degree, there is no question about it that the situation has gotten much worse in the last few years, especialy since 2015
22:55 is the momemt that he questions the BBC about vaccine injury. Every major media outlet ignored this part, just as the interviewer ignored the question, but it's another step towards being able to have this conversation as a society.
Oh man, this is one of the most infuriating interviews I have ever seen. Feels like the interviewer has a list of accusations and he just goes through them and doesn't really even listen to the answers. Then when Elon has an answer he seems annoyed.
Elon has exposed how third class "journalist" have become, gone are the days when journalist had integrity and could ask "real" questions.... Elon is the way forward and kudos to him for exposing this charlatan.
Years ago Musk had a dispute with the BBC about the way Top Gear represented the Tesla car used by Top Gear, it was quite damaging to Tesla. He accused them of outright lying. That is almost certainly what he was referring to in this interview but he did not actually mention it. I like Clarkson and Top Gear even if they did lie then. The fact Musk didn't mention it. He is a class act really. It is strange that the BBC were given the chance to have an interview with a man who is achieving so much on a planetary level, he is really in the elite of people on the planet and they set the interview up to go this way? Such a waste opportunity for them.
Absolutely destroyed this interviewer, really well countered by Elon and so psychologically great, his BS meter is remarkable, he deserves my respect here...
@@Littlebittyrose uhh yes he went to Penn and Stanford bro. Ur probably at a no name state school…this dude is way smarter than anybody you know if your crappy midwestern town
@@Willismcnillis I don't look up Elon's butt like some. And if your looking for work kid....I am not hiring! Good luck to you at McDonalds! By the way kid...I own 10 locations! Bye clown
This guy wasn’t listening to a word Elon was saying, he had his own agenda from the get go, and he kept twitching and itching to ask the next loaded question.
*Summary* Clayton: "I've seen more hateful content." Elon: "Name one." Clayton: "I don't actually use that feed anymore...Let's move on!" Clayton's career is over 😂😂😂 BBC is such a joke!
This is the most bad faith interview I’ve seen in a while. The number of times this interviewer cut Elon off and changed subjects, aggressively, was ludicrous
@@desertsdestiny5483 I hadn't trusted Elon Musk of recent years, but actually feel that buying Twitter has changed something about him. I trul;y believe he didn't want to buy this and yet ended up falling into a trap. I think he has seen first hand how the game is played and got stung, but has something inside that has decided to change sides and perspective. If he is asking questons of who the BBC thinks it is, that's not a bad thing. Most people with intelligence know that the 2020's has become controlled and there is something very deceitful occurring.
I love that when Elon asked him to give an example of "hate speech", the interviewer went into a Porky Pig imitation. "Ba dee buh dee buh dee.....That's all folks!"
Absolutely shocking interviewer. Very rare we get to watch an interview with Elon these days, BBC should’ve shown some respect and sent the best they had 🤦🏻♂️
The public in the UK fund the BBC through a TV licence fee mandated by the government, so basically it publicly funded with the government holding a gun to the public's head, not funded by choice or value of the content created. You have to pay if you have a TV even if you never watch the BBC
These Musk interviews are so funny lol. They have no idea how to interview him. Musk is an engineer, scientist, etc. he thinks super logical. You can’t stump a guy like that lol.
You may like Elon Musk or you may not, but I believe that if you get the chance of an interview with him you should approach this opportunity very well-aware of having in front of you someone who can arguably be considered one of the smartest men alive. This kid showed arrogance and wasn’t well-prepared for the task.
This is a prime example of someone who is honest, clear intelligent talking to an arrogant asshole … not hard to tell Which is which … the energy, the body movement , the voice, EVERYTHING … it is like a psychology lesson … powerful
Look at the body language of the interviewer. He asks a question and immediately as Elon starts to answer he loses interest and is not even listening to what elon is saying and just waiting to ask the next unrelated negative question. Watch carefully.
This is why platforms like Joe Rogan Podcast hold so much more weight than "news" companies do. He just speaks to the guests like normal people and doesn't try to attack them and make them look a certain way. Nothing this guy asked was without an agenda.
Lol Joe would have called this guy out on being a weasel. I remember a super old episode where Joe interviews a magazine owner and ends up pointing out the disrespect and passive aggressiveness. Joe and Redban even started to nail him to the wall for being guilty of things he complains about. The guy reacted by denying and acting like Joe was trying to pick a fight. It was hilarious bc Joe and Redban just started laughing to themselves like dude this guy is a hypocrite.
This man is really showing why he is so successful his communication skills logics and way of conduct is so humble that he was slapping him in his face and he has nothing to say Elon is really a person who answers the hypocrisy of bbc with silence of the reporter 😂😂😂
This interviewer is definitely on some pretty strong stuff. He’s like a mascot for everything that’s wrong with society. Surprised he’s not wearing a mask and shouting pronouns.
This was painful to watch. The dichotomy between the reporter's smugness and complete lack of preparation or thoughtful commentary is truly something to behold. He clearly thought this was going to be his big chance to stick it to Elon but went down Hindenburg style.
This interview is terrible.. he is all over the place.. no rhythm or direction with the questions... he asks the same question after they were answered.. asked and answered, move on...
I watched this interview at least 3 times already, it's so funny to see mainstream media getting crushed by Musk. The best part is: James: I can't give you an exact example. Let's move on.. Musk: Wow James: Covid misinformation Musk: AMAZING!
