A Most Peculiar Test Drive – Follow Up
Musk is filtering the NYT's response when he says:"the Public Editor agreed that John Broder had “problems with precision and judgment," “took casual and imprecise notes” and made “few conclusions that are unassailable.”"Let me try to cherry pick some points from the very same NYT response (1), spun towards the opposite conclusion:"Mr. Musk presented his data "in the most damaging (and sometimes quite misleading) way possible" and "I am convinced that [Broder] . . . told the story as he experienced it."My point isn't that my choice quotes above are accurate, but that Musk's assessment is disingenuous to the NYT's response, and that's in the first paragraph of his article.I'm not sure what Musk is trying to accomplish at this point, his "spin" is transparent and it feels condescending.Tesla's goodwill in my eyes is fast eroding.(1) http://publiceditor.blogs.nytimes.com/2013/02/18/problems-wi...
