Matt Posky gets an earful from commentators at The Truth About Cars

No smoking sign

Let’s post-mortem this thread, shall we?

1) Basically, what we have here was a ginormous food fight in which not one word was spoken about cars.
2) Rehash of the same basic anti-employers-setting-COVID-safety-rules arguments from the same author a few weeks ago, which – surprise! – also ended in a ginormous food fight in which not one word was spoken about cars.
3) However, this time around, the author managed to say that any of his readers who disagree with him were cowardly and foolish. Presumably he was paid for that. Well, that’s a new development.
4) And the only other content that actually talked about an actual, four-wheeled, powered vehicle was Rare Rides. Thank God for Corey.

It seems clear to me it’s time for this site to steer clear of articles like this. I don’t come here for political insight, and the posts that supposedly offer it usually don’t offer much anyway. Time for some articles about actual cars.

@FreedMike – this topic has been covered multiple times. We don’t need more coverage. Add up the number of people stating they are quitting TTAC. Does Posky expect to land a spot at OAN or Fox? or does he expect a flood of Rump 2024 types to join TTAC?

@lou_bc: Yeah, he clearly doesn’t want to be writing about automotive issues. My guess is that he’d rather be at the ny post. There is a lot going on in the automotive world and it gets ignored. Advertisers and affiliates are looking closely at sites that might be considered sources for covid misinformation. They could start losing advertising revenue as well.
