“You Just Lied!” Elon Musk obliterates woke BBC reporter who claims hate speech on Twitter has risen since Musk took over
In what many are calling a complete takedown of the state-funded British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Twitter CEO Elon Musk completely obliterated pro-censorship BBC reporter with facts and reason in a rare interview that took place early this morning.
BBC reporter James Clayton accused Twitter of misinformation and the supposed rise in hate speech. He also alleged that hate speech on Twitter has risen since Elon took over the social platform in October 2022. But Clayton was left scrambling to provide a single example of hate speech during the Twitter Spaces interview that was listened to by more than 3.3 million people.
During the interview, Musk repeatedly asked Clayton to give one example of hate speech that he witnessed on the social platform but he failed to provide any. “You just lied,” Musk later called out the BBC reporter.
Below are some of the excerpts from the interview.
BBC ‘journalism’ at its finest 🤦🏻♂️
