Tesla denied seeking a replacement for CEO Elon Musk before a report was published claiming otherwise.
The Wall Street Journal initially reported that Tesla was looking for Musk's replacement but later revised the headline multiple times.
Board of Directors chairwoman Robyn Denholm issued a statement confirming that the CEO of Tesla is Elon Musk and the Board is confident in his ability.
Elon Musk criticized the Wall Street Journal for publishing a 'deliberately false article' without including Tesla's denial beforehand.
