Stelter says Musk demanding fed employees list accomplishments ‘sounds like common sense,’ but is ‘nonsense’
Fox News
CNN's Brian Stelter claimed Elon Musk demanding federal employees list what they've done at work "sounds like common sense," but is in reality "nonsense."
"The starting point here is it makes a lot of sense, in theory, to go and ask all the employees what they‘re doing," Stelter said on "Inside Politics" Monday. Lindsay Kornick is an associate editor for Fox News Digital. Story tips can be sent to lindsay.kornick@fox.com and on Twitter: @lmkornick.
Stelter added that Musk asked the same question to former Twitter CEO Parag Agrawal in the months leading up to purchasing the company in 2022. After Musk officially bought the social media platform, he went on to fire Agrawal as well as CFO Ned Segal and general counsel Vijaya Gadde. Roughly 70% to 80% of Twitter's 8,000 employees were also later fired or left the company.
