Hear, hear. The entire thing should have been the inverse where Matt stood by his critique and Jason had to capitulate, rather than being righteously indignant enough to convince Matt he was in the wrong…but you can tell Zach didnt buy it and was seething through the whole thing watching Matt get gaslit.
my largest issue with this whole debacle is that Matt came at this from the angle of "I upset my friend and I would like to be nice to my friends so I'll bring him on the podcast and hear him out" and it really truly feels like Cammisa came at this from the angle of "I am going to lawyer the fuck out of this podcast no matter what" and like, it really makes me doubt that literally anything he's ever said is trustworthy at this point.
Couldn’t agree more. One of the most egregious lapses by even the real journalists was the acceptance of and parroting of Tesla’s stated prices - which assumed the tax rebate AND a quoted “fuel savings”. Which we all know is unscientific.
I was really disappointed as I really enjoy Cammisas’s videos. But it was clear by his rhetoric that he drank the KoolAid.
It was much better watching Marques Brownlee skeptically going over the entire vehicle with more questions than answers. After all, Tesla lied and told him they would give him a new Roadster if he drove referral codes to them. He knows now that’s never coming. Brownlee has been burned by Tesla’s lies and still did his best to be objective. cammisa went fanboy.
I always wonder what drives people like you? While Ryan comes up with a thoughtful and reflecting piece it obviously triggered you so hard that you went all in on an ad hominem that any 5yrs old would be embarrassed of. How can you actually get trough life with such an attitude or do they have free wifi in your prison?
Could not agree more. The lack of objective commentary on the Cybetruck has been extraordinary. I’ve been lambasted by frothing Teslarati for factual reportage before; such an astonishing cult.
Everyone wants to be Top Gear, but even they started out writing long form articles. A lot of these personalities get into space with a little to no foundation and hope to be the next big YouTube star.
Back when I was writing, I met Matt at a launch and he was known as one of the most critical journos. But times have changed and what drives clicks and ad revenue is very different.

You’re a moron
Thanks!

At least he used the proper version of “you’re” this time.

This is excellent work, Ryan.
