On Wednesday, Twitter CEO Elon Musk stunned observers by bluntly instructing companies that withdrew their advertisements from the platform amid antisemitism allegations to ‘go find another place,’ but in more choice language.

Musk delivered his outspoken message during The New York Times’ DealBook/Summit, where he engaged with CNBC’s Andrew Ross Sorkin. Addressing the companies that had pulled their ads, Musk stated, “Don’t advertise ... If somebody is gonna try to blackmail me with advertising, blackmail me with money, go f*** yourself. Go f*** yourself. Is that clear? I hope it is.”

Discovery had withdrawn their advertising from Twitter. Musk responded by initiating a lawsuit against Media Matters, disputing their methodology in linking antisemitic content to advertisements and claiming it was flawed and defamatory.
