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.
From a presumably technical audience it was disappointing to read through those takes.
Anyone that’s been on the ground in SF, at cafes, beer gardens, barbershops and any housing protest knows that this is just a symptom A knee jerk boiling over of general disdain of their mismanaged corporate technocracy with a nominal standing committee
> 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.
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.
The "anymore" there means something changed. I don't think there was ever a time in which journalists did not regularly print statements from officials like police and firefighters as fact not worthy of questioning. Sometimes we get into a mindset that everything is getting worse when in reality it is just that we are now more aware of how bad it has always been.

I genuinely have no idea what any of that means. What is a symptom what?
Did they _really_ need to call out that the man (victim) was homeless? Is that a significant identifier important to the story?
Why does it matter if the man was homeless? "a duplex-owning man was crossing a street" would sound silly so why does the man's lack of home need to be mentioned?
