Elon Musk has tweeted about 300,000 words over the last 5 years. Add on what he’s often replying to, and that’s 1.5 million – about the length of two King James Bibles.
Wall Street Journal analyzed them all for you. (1/4) 🧵

An end of an era. I’ve had the incredible privilege and luck to work for two of the best investigative editors of my generation — @michaelsiconolf and Jeff Leen and they’ve both retired within weeks of each other. Will be sorely missed. talkingbiznews.com/?p=168008
