Bad reasons to hate something are bad press for Tesla, and how many people are going to read past a headline that confirms their bias? This isn't limited to Tesla, mind you,
and is a broader statement on clickbait, and the state of the Internet and media and society today. Of course, anybody on Tesla's side knows to take Electrek and the rest of the Inernet’s coverage with a grain of salt, but with rabid fanboys on both sides, it's hard to know how large a grain of salt, and when.
What are the bad reasons that bias electrek’s coverage?
extremist "journalists" and/or undisclosed sponsorship? Contrast their Tesla coverage with their almost giddy stories on anything China related.
Electrek's Fred has a ton of Tesla referral credits. Tesla owes him 2 Roadster's and has reneged. After Tesla screwed him, Fred's coverage turned from glowing to negative.
It seems a lot more biased against what Elons spent the last 2 years doing. If we can call that bias.
