Perhaps Elon Musk buying Manchester United isn't as bad an idea as it initially sounds.

This is also one of the few ways a Musk takeover of Manchester United could actually have a positive impact on society. Although £4.5 billion is a lot to spend on a Tesla ad campaign, it might not be the strangest move Musk has made in the last 12 months. Musk owns brands that are perfect for a spot on a Manchester United shirt. In 2012 Manchester United signed a $599 million seven-year deal with Chevrolet that got the company’s logo on players’ shirts. The more serious bidders for the club are expected to be Ineos owner Jim Ratcliffe and a group of Qatari investors. According to recent reports, Musk is considering putting in a bid of £4.5 billion.

After his Super Bowl tweet did worse numbers than President Biden's, Twitter's CEO ordered major changes to the algorithm. Twitter engineers built a system ...

The algorithm now artificially boosted Musk’s tweets by a factor of 1,000 – a constant score that ensured his tweets rank higher than anyone else’s in the feed. “I think we’re past the point of believing that he actually wants what’s best for everyone here.” Within a day, the consequences of that meeting would reverberate around the world, as Twitter users opened the app to find that Musk’s posts overwhelmed their ranked timeline. After Musk’s timeline takeover caused an uproar Monday, he seemed to suggest that the changes would be walked back, at least in part. Over 90 percent of Musk’s followers now see his tweets, according to one internal estimate. Internally, this is called a “power user multiplier,” although it only applies to Elon Musk, we’re told. Engineers for services like TikTok and Instagram can offer partial, high-level answers to these questions. Roughly 80 people were pulled in to work on the project, which had quickly become priority number one at the company. Employees worked through the night investigating various hypotheses about why Musk’s tweets weren’t reaching as many people as he thought they should and testing out possible solutions. Musk, who also tweeted his support for the Eagles, [generated a little more than 9.1 million impressions](https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/elon-musk-eagles-tweet/) before deleting the tweet in apparent frustration. One possibility, engineers said, was that Musk’s reach might have been reduced because he’d been blocked and muted by so many people in recent months. But there were also legitimate technical reasons the CEO’s tweets weren’t performing.

After his Super Bowl tweet flopped, the Twitter CEO had his engineers build a system to get his tweets more views. By Tomás Mier ...

“You’re fired, you’re fired,” Musk allegedly told the top engineer who had offered this narrative. “This is ridiculous,” he reportedly said in a Tuesday meeting last week. “I think we’re past the point of believing that he actually wants what’s best for everyone here.” Following the game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs, Musk flew his jet to the Bay Area to confront his team and demand they fix the engagement issue, according to Platformer. Sources told Platformer that the boost on Musk’s account continues to play out, but that it is now lower than 1,000 views. on Monday, James Musk, Elon’s cousin, summoned Twitter engineers to “help solve” the “high urgency problem” of Musk’s low engagement, per the report.
