@drewharwell other news outlets are basically “access media” so they are used to getting slapped around and saying “thank you sir, please can I have another” to maintain access to news makers (corps, politicos actors) so they can shoddily just reprint press releases more than do actual journalism which costs money

LOVE IT! Finally a CEO with balls 

@drewharwell @atomicpoet You know that one co-worker who manages to get promoted so far beyond their capability that they end up sleeping on a coach at work digging themselves deeper and deeper into the hole created by their own inadequacies and inability to see that they just need to ‘fess up and ask for their old job back.
@drewharwell I now refer to Tesla and SpaceX as “government affiliated car company” and “government affiliated rocket company.”
