Elon Musk says 'fact checkers' are 'in fact some of the biggest liars'

Elon Musk made it clear that he is no fan of many of the self-proclaimed "fact checkers" that are commonly promoted by legacy media outlets and social media platforms alike; the tech mogul said such people are "in fact some of the biggest liars."

Musk's comments came after X user @alx made a proposition that those who get tagged by X's 'Community Notes' notification for lacking key context in various posts have a clown emoji slapped by their name for two weeks.

"If you get shamed by@CommunityNotes three times in a week like @GlennKesslerWP, your Verified Check becomes a Clown Emoji for Two weeks," he posted online. "Thoughts? cc: @Elonmusk."
