For nearly a decade Elon Musk has claimed Teslas can truly drive themselves. They can’t. Now California regulators, a Miami jury and a new class action suit are calling him on it.

So you're upset that Forbes can't tell the future?

    I think the point is that most of our complaints are FUELED by companies like forbes published data. All of the speculation in Tesla that keeps the stocks high is because of all the glazing these writers keep pumping out in word form.

    Elon is not technically that important to Tesla. Would be better if writers actually wrote about the stuff tesla as a company is ACTUALLY doing to further the industry rather than talking about Elon every waking moment.

    Edit: At the time I kind of wanted a Tesla car even... and had it planned for my next vehicle. But the SpaceX thing turned me off completely and that turned out to have been the best choice in hindsight. Now there's so many good options that are just better than Tesla.

    He’s upset that Forbes did not do actual journalism. Anyone who looked into Theranos would have known that it was smelly from the beginning.

    It was initially difficult to claim outright fraud, but the lack of peer reviewed research coming out of that company or that the diagnostics were even based on would have triggered anyone who was marginally competent in medical testing or even just biochemistry.

    So Forbes sucks, and they printed what they were told.
