#2Where's the video that contradicts the first responders account? Not casting aspersions, I've just looked through this article, linked tweets, etc. and I can't find it.

#3> the takeaway for journalists here is clear: be skeptical of your sources, triple-check your facts, and don’t ever assume that your colleagues are doing the same.
That should be the first thing they teach you in Journalism 101, these days.
I get sick of reading news stories that are all the same AP story, with different ads around it.

I suspect that you'd need to go to Cruise, for that. I suspect they have their own reasons for not publishing it on YT.

I see, good point. Seems like a shame -- even the publishing of an edited video (to leave out any inappropriate content) would be the best antidote to lies in the media.

#6Kind of funny that it is assumed that a human-operated vehicle would be more prompt in getting out of the way. Yesterday, walking in my city I saw an ambulance stuck at an intersection for over a minute because of confused drivers and a police vehicle blocking the road.
I think the fact that the vehicles stop is better. Emergency vehicles can use any lane even for opposite traffic - so go around them.
Meanwhile, Teslas seem to target emergency vehicles for ramming at max speed.

Sounds like the same old NIMBYs upset that their rising wealth is tied to people making waves.

It’s not journalism anymore, it’s visits to your ad riddled pages. Regardless of what truth you post. That’s what it’s become now. That’s web journalism. “I heard it on TikTok” is next.
There are a few institutions trying to keep it dignified but it’s become a bazaar.
