Elon Musk to have 'Twitter Sitter'

Saturday, 27 April 2019 10:34

Tesla boss, Elon Musk, has agreed to have all his social media posts vetted before they go public.

Anything the entrepreneur plans to post online will be approved in advance.

It settles an ongoing legal dispute between Elon Musk and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulators over his tweets.

Their argument was that the CEO was tweeting information about his electric car company, and that in turn was having an impact on the financial markets.

Tesla are now seeking to employ someone for the role.
