To be fair, Twitter revealed who was running the platform before Elon took over. Most people already know who was involved. That said, It probably would have been a good idea to mention it so that people who aren't aware of what happened with Twitter would suddenly know and hear it from a source that they trust.

Yeah but why he say it?
I didn't see the interview so I can't really comment on exactly what he said. I was just saying that most people who follow social media already know what happened with Twitter. I don't think it was malicious in any way but I completely understand why you feel that way. Just saying things as I see it, personally.
