Elon Musk Challenges the Media: Drug Test Results Reveal the Truth
In a fiery and clear response, American billionaire Elon Musk sparked widespread controversy after publishing the results of a recent drug test in an attempt to refute what he described as "false claims" made by the New York Times and Wall Street Journal, which alleged his use of prohibited substances.

Musk shared an official document of a drug test conducted on him on June 11th by the "i3screen" lab, covering a wide range of drugs including amphetamines, benzodiazepines, cocaine, fentanyl, ketamine, and marijuana, all showing completely negative results for the "HAIRSTAT_17 NONDOT HAIR17" test.

The results were sent on June 18th, and Musk made sure to attach them with a sharp comment stating:
 "The fake journalists at the Wall Street Journal and New York Times lied about me shamelessly... now let's see their test results, they will fail!".

This move came after a wave of rumors and media reports targeting Musk in recent weeks, focusing on his behavior at some events and speculating about his drug use.
These allegations sparked a wide debate about the behavior of one of the most influential figures in the technology and space industry.

Elon Musk, known for his sharp opinions and absolute frankness, did not settle for denial but wanted to provide solid evidence of his innocence, in a rare stance from a figure of his stature, emphasizing that the media is responsible for fact-checking information before publishing, especially when it affects the reputation of public figures.

This step reflects a direct confrontation between Musk and major American media institutions, setting a precedent in how public figures respond to news they consider "fake" or misleading.
