Elon Musk: I am not perverted enough to be on CNN

He referenced a satirical Baylon Bee headline that mocked CNN

Newsroom December 22 08:20

Tesla CEO Elon Musk declared he’s “not perverted enough” to be welcomed on CNN as the liberal network struggles through a series of embarrassing scandals.

Musk sat down with satirical website The Babylon Bee for a lengthy podcast interview and, during a conversation about “pointless” companies that “shouldn’t exist” and “should probably be disbanded,” a co-host joked they didn’t feel qualified to interview Musk.

“I’m not the one who asked for the podcast. You guys did, just to be clear,” Musk joked.

“You can be on CNN right now,” co-host Kyle Mann quipped.

“I’m not perverted enough, I guess,” Musk responded, referencing a satirical Bee headline that mocked CNN and drawing laughs from the co-hosts.

While the billionaire appeared to be speaking in jest, CNN has struggled through a series of high-profile scandals in recent months.
