  " I doubt anyone would be so deliberately obtuse as to reach a different conclusion simply because of the company involved." I thought that too. Then I saw how some people on HN (you can use the search to find some of the posts) were arguing that NYT was lying merely based on the fact that Musk is a scientist or because he was trying to change the world. And frankly, some people really are unable to separate their love for Musk and electric cars from the situation. I read all of the accounts, starting from the original Broder article, and it's clear that Broder didn't "work[...] very hard to force our car to stop running."
