Billionaire and Tesla CEO Elon Musk defended Comedian Russell Brand Friday after The Independent and The Telegraph launched a cancel culture campaign against the British comic.
Replying to the outlet, Musk tweeted,” With so many mainstream media companies saying Russell Brand is crazy/dangerous, I watched some of his videos. Ironically, he seemed more balanced & insightful than those condemning him!”

Brand addressed and denied all the allegations in his most recent video, where he also reveals the wealthy foreign donors who have a political incentive to use the outlets are attack dogs for contrarians.
