There were many factors that changed people's opinions of him, and for me it has absolutely nothing to do with "the media."
Remember when he randomly called a guy a pedophile on Twitter who saved the kids in the cave rescue, all because they didn't use his submarine idea?
That was the turning point for me 5 years ago, and he's gone downhill ever since. The reason he was the golden child of tech for many left leaning individuals is because he was pushing forward electric vehicles in a manner no one else had the will to.
He also happens to be a piece of shit as a human being... Nothing to do with "the media."
