I don't know, it sounds like he had his team analyze the log data for MediaMatter's account with a fine-toothed comb and cross-referenced it with their ad system to figure out how their supposed manipulation went down. I know Elon comes across as rather impulsive and erratic, but don't forget that this guy is literally the first person to shoot a rocket into space without the help of an entire government (and make it reusable, too), and he single-handedly made electric cars economically viable. So it's certainly possible that he did his homework on this. But time will tell.
