A legacy media ‘reporter’ had an unhinged meltdown over Elon Musk last week as the world’s richest man continues to trigger all right people.
As the Wrap reported, Axios CEO Jim VandeHei spoke to the National Press Club last Thursday and gave his take on Musk’s provocative claim that his propagandists had been replaced by citizen journalists across the globe. He did not take Musk’s assertion well at all.
Vandehei whined that traditional ‘journalists’ are under fire and ripped Musk’s claim as “bullsh*t.” He then dismissed intrepid non-traditional journalists as lazy and only possessing opinions.
This is what it looks like when someone knows they have lost complete power and control.

VANDERHEI: Everything we do is under fire! Elon Musk sits on Twitter every day saying ‘we are the media’ and’ you are the media.’
My message to Elon Musk is bullsh*t! You’re not the media! You having a blue checkmark, a Twitter handle, and 300 words of cleverness doesn’t make you a reporter! You don’t do that by having an opinion.
You do it by doing the hard work!
MSNBC’s Morning Joe, which showed the clip, predictably slobbered all over Vandehei over his tantrum. But Musk had a different take.
Musk responded to Vanderhei with a wave of the hand and doubled down on his stance that anyone has the power to be a citizen journalist.
“Yeah, whatever, lmao,” Musk wrote. “You are the media now and legacy media know it.”
Yeah, whatever lmao.
You are the media now.
And legacy media know it. https://t.co/TWemmwMoqd
