This week, the billionaire engineer and inventor Elon Musk has announced his next project, whose main objective is the creation of a rating of the credibility of the journalists and the media. Many were sceptical about the seriousness of his intentions, and absolutely nothing.
Without hesitation, the businessman immediately began to implement his promise. In his yesterday’s tweet Musk wrote that his company wanted to buy a domain name Pravda.combut it was busy. Despite the fact that the domain belonged to «the Ukrainian truth», the founder of Tesla wrote in Twitterthat he refused it «Russian».
Musk later corrected his mistake and said: «it Turns out that pravda.com belongs to Ukraine. For some reason, Russia has decided me not to correct».
Turns out https://t.co/S5kmNfnih8 is actually owned by Ukraine. For some reason, Russia didn’t bother to correct me …

According to some users, the easiest-to-Mask method to solve this problem is to buy Ukraine, but the billionaire found another way out. In his next tweet he said that he had purchased a similar domain Pravduh.com, which is read as «truth». In English, the word «duh» is often used as an exclamation and it can be translated «And then!».
Musk also told why it was so important to name the resource that is Pravda and nothing else.
«It’s named after the most pernicious propaganda machine in history, to highlight what we want to avoid — explained Musk. — It’s called satire.»
Tesla in recent years has often been criticized in the media, especially since in the USA there have been several accidents involving electric cars. And in late March, Tesla voluntarily recalled its Model S cars that need minor repairs.
