It might be because Musk is a hypocrite, with vested interests and a dubious relationship with the truth.
Just a couple days ago Musk tweeted out he would enable 'full self driving features' in August. It was a craftily worded, trivial statement, and basically means that people who paid for FSD would get a few minor upgrades.
Nonetheless, several dozen media outlets happily, uncritically gave him some free advertising, with many falsely implying or reporting outright that Tesla's would actually be able to drive themselves come August.
Did Elon get upset about that? Of course not. Lie, distort and pander all you want, so long as you're saying nice things about Tesla.
Say something negative about Tesla, though, and it's off to the Ministry of truth with you.
