Dwayne Johnson lashes out at “clickbait” reporting on Maui earthquake relief efforts

Dwayne Johnson has hit out at “clickbait” reporting on his work to help the Maui earthquake relief efforts.The Hollywood star and former professional wrestler took to X, formerly Twitter, over what he deemed “toxic, false clickbait garbage” after an article framed a recent WWE press conference he appeared at in way that seemed to call out his work on the relief efforts in Maui.Last year, Johnson and Oprah Winfrey launched the People’s Fund of Maui to support the communities affected by wildfires.As per Variety, a video from the WWE event showed Johnson getting booed by the crowd. The article then linked this directly to the relief efforts, something Johnson says was incorrect.The article stated: “Dwayne Johnson promised TENS OF MILLIONS to the victims of the Maui fires, but many victims still have not seen a dime…It looks like the audience is fully AMERICA FIRST and is demanding The Rock and Oprah follow through with their commitment to take care of the people of Lahaina.
