    Why did you add Elon Musk to the headline? I think we all know who runs Tesla, is it really necessary to mention him every time?

      The inclusion of ‘Elon Musk’s’ in the headline was not done manually; it was automatically generated when the post was created. I have not edited the generated headline. You can verify this by attempting to create a post with the same link.

        That is very strange, I wonder why Fortune feels the need to add that text. Why doesn’t the ‘embed title’ (or whatever it’s called) match the article title?

          Probably SEO reasons to help it pop up if you search his name there by driving more traffic to their site

      He’s at the heart of the company’s problems. It’s good for the public to associate his name with failure, given the false image he’s created for himself.
