It's because there's a weird cottage industry that has sprung up to write fluff about Tesla and launder their press releases. Their intended audiences are not discerning enough to know the difference or care, and evidently, they are not discerning enough to make wise investments given Tesla's comical market cap in comparison to the rest of the industry. This "news" makes it sound like Tesla is doing something big and important, so these "news" blogs just repeat it without looking into it in the slightest. I'm willing to bet that if you sent one of these blogs a convincing enough press release about anything that makes Telsa look good, they would publish something about it within a day.
