In reply to the discussion: '60 Minutes' admits error in dubbing noises over quiet Tesla electric car [View all]tridim
(45,358 posts)4. Tesla is being Tuckered, big time.

You gotta admire the chutzpah of the editor, to believe Tesla wouldn't notice or object . . .

It takes a considerable amount of audacity for 60 minutes to call this an error.
