They may have motives but there are laws in place that prevent them from falsifying the data required to come to an intelligent conclusion of whether Tesla will pay off their debt or not so the data better not be false. As for the news organizations, there is a possibility they have motives and the way many of the articles are composed does not help the case that they do not have motives, whether that be get the most clicks or push down another organization. I believe they have laws in place as well to protect readers from this sort of behavior, but I'm not sure. Both types of organizations have been known to break the law though so we're left wondering what the future will hold. It will be fun to look back in the months ahead and see which theory was correct.
