Journalist Mike Pesca took to X to slam an article published in a reputed newspaper about Elon Musk’s SpaceX launch. The news detailed that the launch destroyed several bird nests, and the journalist slammed the newspaper for making it the “most important” news of the day. The SpaceX owner reacted to the post with a hilarious comment.
“If you aren't familiar with the grammar of the Times front page layout here it is: The top right story is the lead story, the top left story is the sub-lead everything else above the fold is the important news of the day. Today the New York Times says the second most important story is mounting pressure from senior congressional Dems to push Biden out of the race. The 3rd most important story is a shocking French election results upending all expectations. The MOST important story is Elon Musk's successful space launch destroying nine bird nests,” Pesca wrote.
