    I'll give the guy this. ... From the earliest days of Tesla, he's been remarkably consistent about promising things, and then failing to deliver them on his own self-created deadline.

    SJ.com in 2015: "Matt Taibbi wrote a 15,000-word longform Esquire story that had a 1,000-word section describing the subject's symphonic farting patterns. It's brilliant!

    SJ.com in 2022: "Matt Taibbi just sent out 10 tweets laying the foundation for a story that could rock the foundations of our political system. When is he going to get to the fucking point!?"
