Here's an example of local TV (@WNEP, an ABC affiliate in Scranton, PA) getting duped into covering a QAnon event as a "just folks" demonstration against human trafficking. These events happened all over the country today.https://t.co/Rp309w3AkM— Jay Rosen (@jayrosen_nyu) August 23, 2020

Elon Musk now has a net worth of almost $100 billion.
In January, PlainSite sent Elon Musk, Zach Kirkhorn and the $TSLA Board of Directors e-mails inquiring as to the definition of "deliveries." Tesla has never fully defined the term.
