But instead of issuing an unreserved apology he said: “My words were spoken in anger after Mr Unsworth ... suggested I engage in a sexual act with the mini-sub.”
What Mr Unsworth in fact said in an interview with CNN was, “He can stick his sub where it hurts.”
While this is a vulgarity, it is nevertheless in common usage, and is often used in a jocular sense when you are telling someone where to get off.
For Musk to take it literally, or pretend to do so, is pathetic.
Go ahead and sue him, Mr Unsworth.
