'At the heart of Elon Musk’s public persona is his image as an engineering and managerial genius,' writes columnist hiltzikm. 'That image has taken a hit in recent months, thanks to Musk’s misadventure with Twitter.'
At the heart of Elon Musk’s public persona is his image as an engineering and managerial genius.
The doubts originated with his whimsical offer last April to buy the social media platform for $44 billion, his transparent wriggling to get out of the vastly overpriced deal, and his ultimate capitulation in the face of the near-certain prospect that a Delaware court would order him to complete the transaction at the original agreed price.
The doubts about whether Musk knows what he’s doing have intensified in the 11 days since he assumed ownership of Twitter. He has replaced Twitter’s identity verification policy, which ensured that prominent account holders were who they said they were and endowed their profiles with a blue checkmark, with a system awarding the blue check to anyone willing to pay $7.99 a month for it.
