'Acting Like a King': Michigan's Attorney General on the Lawsuit to Undo Musk's Damage

The article discusses Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel's criticism of Elon Musk's management of X Corp (formerly Twitter), particularly focusing on a lawsuit filed by X Corp against the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). Nessel accuses Musk of acting like a "king" by attempting to silence critics through legal action, specifically targeting the CCDH for their research on hate speech and misinformation on the platform.
