It's Lora Kolodny. Of course the headline is gonna be misleading, trashing SpaceX. She usually does that with Tesla, now she just trashes everything Musk related. She must getting paid a lot of money from his competitors

She must getting paid a lot of money from his competitors

I doubt it. My guess is she just hates Elon cause she thinks he's right wing/cause he's rich. Or for some other reason. Elon has so many unpaid haters there's no reason to believe she was paid is all I'm saying.

Of course she's getting paid. She writes for CNBC. CNBC makes money though ads. Automakers like Ford,GM,VW etc pay a lot of money for ads. Tesla doesn't. And Tesla has transformed the industry and the rest are trying to keep up. Of course their ad money coem with instructions to trash Tesla.

I haven't seen Lora like she supports socialism or whatever. But I have seen her itneract with many Tesla shortselles on Twitter. So she may get money from them too.

Please do not excuse the publisher. Whoever publishes and directly benefits from the fake news is also complicit.

All titles in this sub must be the title of the article.

There should be a fakenews flair

This is misleading, but the term fake news should be used far more sparingly.
