DAVID MUIR: There’s an pressing search tonight for a driver who drove right into a crowd in Southern California. Authorities say there was a confrontation involving that Tesla driver who they are saying then returned, ramming into folks on the street. 4 folks have been damage.
After all, there’s way more to the story than bla, bla, bla TESLA. Per Fox Information:
Video captured the chaotic second a automobile barreled right into a crowd gathered exterior a bar over the weekend in San Bernardino County, California, triggering a burst of gunfire and sending bystanders scrambling for security.

The Fox merchandise mentions the model of the ramming automobile as nicely, however not as a centerpiece of the report, which is what ABC did. In a three-sentence story, the position of “Tesla” renders it its protagonist. By design.
That is opposite to straightforward apply together with your typical ramming story, which seldom mentions the automobile’s make, if in any respect. When was the final time you heard the automobile’s make function prominently in a automobile ramming story? You don’t.
These different manufacturers don’t get talked about in any respect. However issues are nonetheless (D)ifferent in relation to Tesla. The media proceed to hate Elon Musk with the depth of a thousand suns, and as if he by no means left the Trump administration in any respect.
