Richest man impregnates someone who is hot and willing. Why is this news?

Probably cause, it's a sign that the worst rumors about Tesla are right.

Elon shouldn't be sleeping or hitting on his employees (see: exposing himself to a flight attendant). She's also on the board of one of his companies and held that position for less than a year before becoming pregnant with his children.

  He only comes in contact with his executives. If out of them someone wants to be in a sexual relationship with him, that is their prerogative. A lot of companies have rules to clarify with HR when something like this happens.

    Most HR departments don't approve of managers having sexual relationships (or children!) with their subordinates: it quickly becomes difficult to tell if preferential treatment is happening and presents possible legal problems.

    In the corporate world, this is completely untenable, unethical behavior because of the conflict of interest that Musk has with her as a subordinate.

When an unelected person is as powerful as Musk, almost anything he does is newsworthy. It may be nothing, or it may be a warning about the way he will conduct himself when wielding his influence. In this case, it mostly tells us that he doesn't abide by commonly-held moral and professional standards.

  He would have achieved common results if he abided by commonly held ideas.

    So only unscrupulous people succeed, right? That's what you're implying. You assume I care about Musk's success. Being unethical is a big part of it, sure. But if I could choose for Musk to be a failure, I would. He hasn't done anything that benefited me, and now he's determined to do things that are actively harmful (removing safeguards at Twitter, pushing "FSD" alpha software onto roads, supporting authoritarian politicians in the US).
