Billionaire Elon Musk described himself as “an ... idiot” in Thai cave rescue defamation lawsuit
has described himself as “an ... idiot” for his handling of the PR disaster that followed from his tweet calling a British cave diver “pedo guy” in 2018.
Musk, according to the documents, had taken umbrage at Unsworth, who was involved in the 2018 rescue of a group of soccer players from a flooded cave in Thailand, and dismissed Musk’s submarine rescue plan as a PR stunt in aUnsworth’s lawyers claim in the documents that Musk hired a convicted felon, who claimed to be private investigator, to look into the diver’s personal life and that he tried to leak negative stories about the British diver to the British and Australian media.
Musk claimed that the emails were off the record and that he merely intended to trigger a press investigation into Unsworth. “I didn’t expect Buzzfeed to publish an off-the-record email. My intent was to have them investigate and come to their own conclusions, not publish my email directly. ... Still, I’m a fucking idiot,” said Musk, in correspondence with his on-retainer PR agent revealed in the court documents.
