Technology tycoon Elon Musk, who is renowned for his audacious inventions and unvarnished viewpoints, has started a public campaign to terminate The View, a popular talk program.
The program was recently criticized on social media by the CEOs of SpaceX and Tesla, who described it as “divisive” and a “platform for ideological echo chambers.”
His audacious deed generated a great deal of discussion and drew both praise and condemnation. Although Elon Musk’s contempt for The View is not new,
His current actions mark a notable increase. Elon Musk, according to those close to him, feels the program stifles productive discussion.
And reinforces prejudiced notions. He urged his sizable following to boycott the program in a series of vehement posts on X (previously Twitter), which marked the start of the campaign.
