Elon Musk tries to walk back ‘go f*** yourself’ comments to woo advertisers who fled X

"Last year, Elon Musk had a message for advertisers who were fleeing his social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, in droves.

"Go f*** yourself."

This week, the billionaire entrepreneur appeared to have changed his tune, in a bid to boost ad money spent on X, Axios reported.

At the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity on Wednesday, Musk insisted that his blunt remark was not addressed to all advertisers but only those insisting on “censorship”.

“First of all, it wasn’t to advertisers as a whole. It was with respect to freedom of speech,” Musk told Mark Read, CEO of advertising giant WPP, during an onstage discussion."
