Elon Musk threatens to sue Anti-Defamation League over antisemitism claims
CBSN
Elon Musk said he may sue the Anti-Defamation League for purportedly accusing X and the billionaire owner of the social platform of antisemitism and fueling advertisers' exodus from the social network.
In a post on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Monday, Musk accused the civil rights group of "trying to kill" X by "falsely accusing it & [him] of being anti-Semitic." In another post he claimed that X's falling advertising revenue, which has plunged roughly 60% since his formal takeover of the platform in October of 2022, is "primarily due to pressure on advertisers" by the ADL.
"If this continues, we will have no choice but to file a defamation suit against, ironically, the 'Anti-Defamation' League," Musk said.

A single moment captured by an Army photographer became the most enduring image of America's greatest military operation.
