NEW YORK: Elon Musk's US$44 billion Twitter takeover saga comes with all the drama necessary to be immortalised in case studies for future captains of industry, as the tycoon's on-off pursuit of the social media platform and unique management style make for a union like no other.

Musk has said he would take the reins as CEO but only until he finds a new executive with expertise in the media industry."What is to come is unclear," said Donna Hitscherich, a Columbia Business School professor.
