I think some news companies are trying to sue him for linking to articles without paying them, which is a strange turn of events given it wasn't too long ago that businesses would paid you to link to their site (that's what Elon says anyway; I'm not in web commerce so I don't know personally how it works.) So, I guess he wants to have people write the news on his site instead?
