1. Use Twitter to announce all material changes changes timely to bypass the sponsored media.
2. Do Pravdah seriously. Hit these sponsored (phony) journalists and analysts with the equivalent of baseball stats and keep a running total of corrections that everyone one of them runs. Provide breakdowns of their known funding and sponsors and owners.
3. Stop interacting with the so-called mainstream media, no more interviews. The Rogan stuff is fine but anyone that is not at the blogger level should be off limits anyone that is involved with sponsored media or anyone that has had any history of doing anything negative on Tesla in the past- avoid them. Do not deal with the mainstream media.
4. Don't do the sessions with the analysts anymore. Not every large company does this and Tesla needs to drop this, just do it all in writing after what make sense to release first , release everything possible first on Twitter or equivalent system.
Criteria if can't get rid of actual earnings calls
But lets say the stupid analysts meetings had to continue for some reason (the should not!!!)- you don't want Exxon's agents or proxies in the meeting so you must have some solid criteria.
1. To gain entrance to a meeting or a call the analyst must ahead of time provide their firm's historical fossil fuel exposure as a % of all holdings, their current fossil fuel exposure as a % of all holdings and their trending of fossil fuel holdings up or down year to date- need similar estimates for the majority shareholders in their firms if fossil fuel related companies hold more than 1/10th of the stock they shouldn't be in the meeting. They must state this at the beginning of every question or have it stated for them in preface to any answer (proper weight needs to be given to their core conflict of interest) and these estimates must be verified by Tesla prior to their attending each time. Make them provide the information to verify it as necessary- link all that through twitter.
2. Do not let anyone that is not in the bottom quartile of fossil fuel holdings in the room- if they have more than 10% fossil fuel holdings they should not be in the room. Don't let them in the room if they are trending upwards on fossil fuel holdings in successive meetings. And again make them preface their statements or preface it for them with their historical, current and trending fossil fuel holding % percentages- this properly discredits them. We're Goldman we have 58% Fossil Fuel holdings and historically it was 70% and we are trending upwards on fossil fuels and are 30% owned by majority fossil fuel interest etc.- puts their hack reps 'analysts' in proper context. Again before admittance to successive meetings they have to be trending downward. No firm or entity that has ever shorted Tesla should be allowed in unless they can show the short was only for insuring a long position.
3. Don't allow anyone that has ever said anything negative about Tesla that is also inaccurate into the meetings. Once a FUD spinner always a FUD spinner- given them one and only one shot and keep careful track of it.
4. If no one can meet the criterion then just don't invite anyone just print the statements and answer in writing if need be on Twitter of course. There is no need to allow shills to turn earnings calls into chances to manipulate the stock or the company's prospects or access to capital markets to the advantage of adversaries. They don't need to be able to interrogate because the whole thing is about trying to misrepresent Tesla and its prospects, that has to stop- Tesla is getting blamed for the FUD they create. Just shut all that down.
5. Jobs didn't do a bunch of interviews. I think Musk is able to focus on vision and execution of that vision. That is all there is too it. There is good will and it is massive to do coms on Twitter(!) and not have to pay democracy killing sponsored media (media is one thing sponsored media is the gravest enemy of democracy and freedom.
6. Tesla is in a fight, a war basically, it has to control the information and stop being controlled.
7. One thing Tesla can't skimp on is legal expenses. These are nasty fights, Tesla has to be more willing to go after agencies that do things that are ridiculous. It is not about dangerously alienating the public sector but can't let corrupt paid off bastards cut off the firms air supply. Use those first Amendments rights to help makes sure we all retain them and don't become property for lack of a voice.
Think I noticed that now that Fox is doing more negative stuff on Tesla- so what does that mean in terms of the board and it Murdoch was just angling for the chairmanship all along that kind of intent should be looked at.
