Why Troubling News:

This article's headline draws a metaphor between tech billionaire Elon musk, and a 16th century English figure executed for treason at the hand of the king, his superior. The metaphor can very easily be extended to assume that Trump is the King in this metaphor as he is now Musk's superior. The article employs the use of language which contributes to and exaggerates this narrative, "He has flown straight from Texas in his Gulfstream to bask in the adulation of his new lord and master" (Donald Trump as his master). This is an overt use of straw manning an argument but in a news source article.
