It just boggles my mind that there's so much objective evidence that these cars are over-engineered (and in many parts under-engineered), overpriced pieces of poo poo that no exaggeration will actively try and kill you and your family , and yet so many people are still, "One for me, please!"

As I walked by a father and his two prepubescent sons on Saturday, I heard one of them ask "Daddy, will you buy a Tesla?" Suddenly, the father angrily burst out "No, I am not buying a PIECE OF poo poo."

I almost laughed out loud.

~~And that father's name was Albert Einstein.~~ This actually happened.

The article claims that they don't even know how their source for this information got the information.

I mean, I don't doubt it at all, but I really loving hate media straight up making poo poo up like Fox News. Jalopnik has been around forever so I don't have a bias against them or anything.

However, verify if something is true before you publish it. Don't just publish it and say "oh btw we don't know if this is true or not" at the end of the article.

InsideEV reports that the owner of the truck was actually the one responsible for the crash although they didn�t exactly say how they learned this information.

That poo poo just angers me.

Those things are very funny, but (probably) not true and we know it. It's great to joke about, but I prefer knowing the truth.

The point is that if you consider yourself to be a legitimate news source and you want your readers to believe you.... just tell the loving truth and more importantly, prove it. If you don't know, then don't write an entire article of what you want to be true and then add a footnote saying "eh, not sure though."

That's akin to the "just asking questions" assholes. Or again, Fox News. They are quite notorious for publishing flat out false information like transgender mass shooters before the blood on the ground dries and then not redacting/apologizing for grossly incorrect information. They'll just run a new article.

I also hate that so many news articles' sources are just other news articles. That should be some ethical issue I'd imagine.

It's very, very, very, very important these days to not half rear end poo poo and to put out verifiable factual information. People are incredibly loving stupid (me included) and will believe cropped facebook boomer images. I can't stress enough how important quality journalism is.

edit: I'm venting btw. If you sense any anger it's not directed towards you personally.
