Why did Elon get so upset about the softball af Don Lemon interview?

Just a guess, but I think years of favorable media coverage has made Elon into a narcissist or near equivalent. Anything that threatens the massive ego must be eliminated with extreme prejudice!!

I know someone who works at Space X and has had meetings with Elon Musk.

As he diplomatically puts it, "He's an interesting character."

Gi e the guy a break. He's a self made made man born into extreme wealth. He worked hard for that inherited emerald mine wealth
