Tesla gets misrepresented in the media, nothing new, but how is it so wrong?

If you're going to write an article in a major media source, you'd think they'd get the details right.

But I can't wonder why they did it, but I can wonder what they did. What is it that's supposedly wrong that these articles were covering? It didn't seem to have anything to do with anything specific to Tesla's products, honestly.

What liberal media, anyhow? No one mentioned liberals.

Corporate billionaires make great targets for the left, but the NYTimes doesn't print people on the far left, generally.

Citation? Any?

Cigarettes can hurt you. Do you need a citation too. Here we go again. Stop being like this and do you own honest research for the truth.

So you don't have anything, and why are you derailing my thread, again? C'mon, you can do better than this echo-chamber stuff.

Because in Canada the "Liberals" have been particularly bias in reporting the news their way. The media is flooded with this specific social ideology. It is a well know issue.
I am unfamiliar with Canadian news sources. The U.S.has the same issue with Fox News. They are overtly pushing agenda. MSNBC has their own spin. All sources have spin.

A technique I use in news stories is to compare and contrast spin so I can gleam accuracy. Based on the sources who attempt to sway opinion away from facts, I personally rate their feed and eventually cut away repeat offenders. There are also places in the U.S. where viewers do not have a choice due to local monopolization of networks. You only get their viewpoint.

I am curious, do you not like Canadian “liberal” news source because they shape, spin the news or do not like factual reporting you do not agree with?

Only answer if you like, not meaning to put you on the spot.

My answer to your thread is the nature of the "liberal" media in general. It is wrong because it is not the truth. The truth matters...

I have lived many years of spins towards the liberals agenda in this country (I am 61) to the point I even make an effort to go and vote needlessly when it is time to do so. Everything I ear and read has been tinted and twisted. In Canada the "NATIONAL" news is always pointed out against Quebec. I daily watch the news in Canadian English, Canadian French and even the US news and you would be very surprised to get the twist in all of it. In the US, I mostly listen to Lester on Channel 4 because of access. I like Lester! I do not get Fox news and other US news.

I am not going down to that level (I do not like "social" media). However, the truth must be looked for...
