Tesla introduced a sports car yesterday that it claims goes 0-60 in 1.9 seconds.

As I've pointed out before, the actual split for Fox news stories is 52-48% Dem.

I finally remembered where this stat comes from. It's from this study

https://shorensteincenter.org/news-coverage-donald-trumps-first-100-days/

Please note the following:

The research is based on news coverage in the print editions of three U.S. daily papers (The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and The Washington Post), the main newscasts of four U.S. television networks (CBS Evening News, CNN?s The Situation Room, Fox?s Special Report, and NBC Nightly News), and three European news outlets (Financial Times, based in London; BBC, Britain?s public service broadcaster; and ARD, Germany?s oldest public service broadcaster).

The 52-48% stat is based upon only one program on Fox: Special Report with Bret Baier. It's not intended to represent the entire day's programming; nor is the figure for CNN. I fully concede that Special Report is one of the most balanced shows on Fox. It is nowhere close to being representative of the entire network, however.

Good. Now we can put that stupid claim to bed.

Electromagnetic technology. It's already been seen at some amusement park rides and Bullet trains in Japan. It's costly. Not sure Tesla can scale this profitably.

I think he is referring to the Harvard study that showed Fox spending relatively equal amt of time on stories negative as stories positive of the president. Where as CNN was 93% of their coverage was negative (back when their were playing the Russia narrative on loop all day everyday). I presume that is still the case.

Remember when the left went nuts over Pence's rule to never be alone with a woman that wasn't his wife? Remember how bad he was ridiculed from the left??

funny how each passing day that rule seems more and more of a good idea.

LOL -- that's the Muslim way. "We can't be trusted to live by our own code so keep chicks away from us", basically. Not able to moderate their own behavior.

Is that why? the leftist mind is so perverted that it immediately runs to "men can't help themselves" or "Pence is not sure that women can resist him", or "Pence doesn't know if he can contain his animal urges" or "Islam is rape culture" when really it's a bullet proof alibi for any accusations, especially for a political figure.
