Musk accused the Associated Press of propaganda over an article about the FRG tragedy

American entrepreneur Ilon Musk accused the Associated Press agency of propaganda after a car hit a crowd in the German city of Magdeburg. He wrote about it on December 20 in the social network X (former Twitter).

"AP stands for Associated Propaganda," Musk commented on a social network user's post about the publication's use of the suffering pledge in an article about the terrorist attack at the Christmas fair in Magdeburg, which could lead to the opinion that the car was driving peacefully on its own, and the victims were few and the event insignificant.
