From the article:

“In 2018, Musk tweeted his intentions to create a website named Pravda where the general public could rate the "core truth" of any article and "track the credibility score" of journalists, editors, and their publications.”

Should do it!

Elon, that’s enough, out of you!

[Round Earther]

When you are offered a billion, you take it.

I don’t really understand. WHERE is Wikipedia’s donations going?

[KittyKares]

I wouldn’t name it “Pravda” though. That was the name of “the official newspaper of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union.” (Per Wikipedia)

LOL!

They would do it, then all exit with the money.

[AndyTheBear]

He should pay the billion in monopoly dollars.

A fool and his money... you know the rest. Elon, STFU and get back to your own business. Wikipedia does not deserve a penny, your petty offer is nonsensical.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Unless it is the most trivial topic, Wikipedia reads like the editorial page of Pravda and the New York Times.

Never give them a penny.

When I was pursuing my Master’s, my professor stated any papers sourcing Wiki would get an automatic fail.

[Openurmind]

Can’t help but ike this guy sometimes... lol

[digger48]

He’s got F U money

Let him have fun with it

Makes for good entertainment

And his multiple launches a week are fun to watch too. Hard to keep track of them all now. 2 in one day this weekend.

I think wiki is part of deep state, so I’ve heard.

And they always manage to write up every miniscule “infraction” (real or made up) for every GOP or Conservative individual to make them look like horrible people. While, conversely, the Demonrats and Stalinazi loons get write ups to make them look like heroes to the proletariat.

I’ll change my own name to Dickipedia for a year for that million, Elon. DM me if interested.

A fool and his money... you know the rest.

He's one of the richest men in the world, and he wasn't born into it. The idea of anyone here calling Musk a fool is...well, pathetic. Like him or not, he's one of the best minds in the world today.

Elon Musk: the ultimate “Mad Lad”.

[I want the USA back]

I thought it was a joke. It’s funnier because it’s true. (Couldn’t find it on wickipedia)

Don’t sell yourself short. He offered a billion. :)
