You are cherry picking a few minutes from an interview that was several hours long. CNBC didn't air the full interview, and the cut at that point of the interview as very misleading. Here is what Elon said in response, "This is a very misleading edit. Please post the full transcript where I complete the sentence."

Many stories could been told with that time. This was accurate as viewed from an Upper East Side Manhattan dinner party."

> Elon said in response, "This is a very misleading edit. Please post the full transcript where I complete the sentence." To be totally clear, the sentence being referred to is no part of what I mentioned above, and would not appear to be relevant. > You are cherry picking a few minutes from an interview that was several hours long. Was there another part of the interview where he said he would comply? That seems unlikely, given that he still hasn't complied. This isn't "cherry picking" so much as "taking the part that we're talking about, and ignoring the parts that have nothing to do with it".

  Elon is referring to the last sentenced your quoted from the interview. Is he going to stick to the settlement? Who knows. Did he break the law by tweeting the figures? No. Why not? Because the information was already public. He said it in recent Tesla earning. Please google for more information.

    > Elon is referring to the last sentenced your quoted from the interview. No, he isn't. The thread you link is discussing this sentence: > I mean that's not realistic, because I am the largest shareholder in the company and a very high percentage of the shareholders support me and the company. So essentially I could just pull for a shareholder vote and get anything I want [provided I could get support for at least a third of the other shareholders]. (The material within [] was apparently not quoted by CBS. This is a fair complaint for Elon Musk to make, but it's not part of anything I quoted, and it doesn't address the settlement, compliance efforts, or the relationship between Musk and the SEC.)

I have never even watched 60 minutes, but they have more credibility on this then the who was tweeting about the Shortseller Enrichment C omission. .
