The Elon Musk and Twitter saga continues. Billionaire Elon Musk said he’s no longer interested in buying Twitter. Twitter says it’s having none of that and will sue Musk to ensure the deal goes through. So, what does this all mean? In a follow-up to our previous conversation, we speak with Assistant Professor Peter Beattie, Media Researcher, Lecturer, Global Political Economy & Political Psychology, Chinese University of Hong Kong.
