What does "abusive media tactics" mean?

• RecycledEle 3y ago
  The media mocked cars that made sense as environmental disasters (e.g., large, American-made, rear-wheel drive, V8-powered cars) when they were not. Those cars got 300,000+ miles before being scrapped. I am most familiar with the 1993 Chevy Caprice, which got 24 MPG on the highway. The media ripped those cars and the companies who made them until the business-class* executives gave up and took them out of production. * business-class refers to accountants, attorneys, and MBAs who are more than 2 levels above the lowest workers in the company and who genuinely do not understand the words they are using. They often say a word thinking of a common usage of it, not understanding that in their work it is industry-specific or company-specific jargon.
