WHY MIKE LEE IS RIGHT: AP’S CYBERTRUCK CLAIMS CROSS THE LINE
The Senator's argument against AP’s Cybertruck explosion is important to outline.
Under New York Times v. Sullivan (1964), defamation requires proving 'actual malice'—publishing falsehoods knowingly or recklessly.
AP’s suggestion that Tesla’s battery failed, despite evidence of external explosives, undermines Tesla’s reputation.
By ignoring Tesla’s demonstrated battery resilience and safety features, AP didn’t just mislead—it potentially eroded public trust in a groundbreaking product.
This is poor journalism; it’s reputational damage that carries serious legal implications.
Senator Lee’s concerns aren’t just valid—they’re vital to a healthy democracy.
Especially when AP regards themselves as part of the Fourth Estate, a pillar of functioning societies.
