Galloway Accuses Musk of Betraying the West Over Starlink in Ukraine
Scott Galloway compared Elon Musk to Soviet spies on his podcast over the throttling of Starlink access in Ukraine, Fox News reported.
Scott Galloway, a New York University professor and podcaster, called Elon Musk a "traitor to the West" over the throttling of Starlink access in Ukraine, according to a Fox News report.
Fox News reported that Galloway made the remarks on his podcast and compared Musk to Soviet spies who gave away U.S. nuclear secrets. The outlet's headline describes those spies as having been executed during the Cold War. The summary of the report does not name the spies or describe the secrets in further detail.
According to Fox News, Galloway's criticism centered on the throttling of Starlink access in Ukraine. The summary does not describe how that throttling was carried out or what effect it had on users in the country.
The headline and the summary differ in wording. The headline uses the shorter word traitor, while the summary gives the fuller phrase describing Musk as a traitor to the West. Fox News reported both versions of the characterization, and neither account describes a different reason for the remarks.
The Fox News report is filed under the outlet's media section, as its web address indicates. The material reviewed for this story lists no author for the report.
The material reviewed for this story contains no response from Musk, from Starlink, or from Galloway to the remarks. It also contains no account of the podcast episode from any other outlet, so the details reported here rest on the Fox News report alone.
