Wow. Elon to be replaced by this guy?

If I were a shareholder, I'd be screaming out to keep hold of Elon rather than Mr Murdoch.

In short:

> On 7 July 2011, James Murdoch announced the closure of the British tabloid newspaper the News of the World in the wake of a phone hacking scandal.[23]

Although everyone has the right to make mistakes, this was the man who closed a 168yr old newspaper based on illegal activities that seemed rife in the company.

Based on what Mr Musk has already gone through, I don't think Mr Murdoch is what Tesla needs.
