A journalist creating news? Nah, this can't be true!

I think it's funny he got caught. Especially since he lied so much.

And now the NYT is back-tracking...if only a little:
 
http://green.autoblog.com/2013/02/19/new-york-times-admits-tesla-model-s-writer-- - - didnt-use-go/
 
I predict these black boxes will change the way reviews are written in the future. Better take good notes!
 
NYTimes has never exactly been the best at auto reporting. Many of the people who work there don't even drive at all!

And "broderize" has now entered the lexicon.
 
From what I read, Broder isn't an auto writer either, but covers the oil industry among other stuff.
 
But I'm not going to call it a hack job until after market closes in another minute and Tesla releases sales results for Q4. They targeted 2,500 to 3k. Or was it 3k sold for the year? Lost that link already.

That's the problem whenever you approach any writing assignment with an agenda. The NYT would fire him if they had any guts at all.

Agreed, and the "investigation" they did was a bit lame as well.
 
Looks like Tesla didn't quite meet expectations, only selling 2400.

The entire NYT has a liberal agenda. Not much there you can take face value. Reader beware with ALL MEDIA.

That's just it - the Greens are saying that Broder is an oil company shill trying to slam EVs to protect the gasoline sellers.

The liberal agenda is hardly anti Oil. Look how many billions Soros has made from oil. Broder should be against Tesla for the $millions they have extorted from tax payers with no real chance of success. They are a green plaything for the rich and famous. Will never be mainstream. Look how poorly the cheap EVs are doing with huge tax incentives.
