Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla and SpaceX, has completed the $790 million acquisition of media company ABC, making headlines worldwide. The deal caused a stir not only because of the large sum spent but also due to an unexpected move Musk made shortly after the announcement.
In a surprising decision, Musk chose to cancel “The View,” a popular U.S. talk show, following an incident on the program. During a live broadcast, guest Alec Baldwin referred to Musk as “trash,” which directly influenced Musk’s decision to end the show.
The cancellation of “The View” shocked many, with the move seeming to be a direct response to Baldwin’s comments. This bold action added another layer to Musk’s already controversial public persona.
