Techlife News|April 15, 2023
Billionaire Elon Musk has told the BBC that running Twitter has been "quite painful” but that the social media company is now roughly breaking even after he acquired it late last year
MUSK SAYS OWNING TWITTER 'PAINFUL' BUT NEEDED TO BE DONE

In an interview also streamed live late Tuesday on Twitter Spaces, Musk discussed his ownership of the online platform, including layoffs, misinformation and his work style.

“It’s not been boring. It’s quite a rollercoaster,” he told the U.K. broadcaster at Twitter’s San Francisco headquarters.

It was a rare chance for a mainstream news outlet to interview Musk, who also owns Tesla and SpaceX. After buying Twitter for $44 billion last year, Musk’s changes included eliminating the company’s communiciations department.

Reporters who email the company to seek comment now receive an auto-reply with a poop emoji.
