Sounds like journalists can just make shit up and publish it. "Telsa declined to comment." so I guess it's true until corrected.

It's how journalists apply pressure to companies to respond. "We have statements x, y, and z from the public about you. Do you care to respond? We need to go to press with it in two hours." Companies can ignore it if they want, but the statements will go uncontested.
