Al JazeeraAn analysis of more than 12,500 of Musk’s tweets from 2010 to 2021 highlights new Twitter owner’s favourite topics. Musk, who is worth some $270bn, said Twitter had “tremendous potential” that he would unlock and make the platform a bastion of free speech while developing new features including “authenticating all humans”. Here is a brief timeline of events that led to Musk’s successful bid for the company: April 4 – Musk buys a 9.2 percent stake in Twitter worth about $2.9bn. April 9 – Musk tweets “Is Twitter dying?” April 10 – Twitter CEO announces Musk no longer joining its board. Unsurprisingly, with nearly 2,000 mentions, “TESLA” – Elon Musk’s electric car company that he founded in 2003 – is Musk’s most tweeted word followed by “SpaceX”, his aerospace company and then “Cars”.
