The media is a click-seeking machine dressed up as a truth-seeking machine: Elon Musk

Amid several media reports appearing on Elon Musk’s activities, the tech billionaire has called media “click-seeking machines”.

On Twitter, Musk criticised the media, which came after the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) reported his alleged affair with Google Co-founder Sergey Brin’s wife Nicole Shanahan, which the Tesla CEO has vehemently denied.

“The media is a click-seeking machine dressed up as a truth-seeking machine,” Musk said.

Recently, the Tesla and SpaceX CEO expressed his displeasure with the unwanted media attention he is getting these days.

He said the attention “super sucks,” and he will continue to focus on doing useful things.
