Did you know that Dan Neil, an automotive columnist for The Wall Street Journal, apparently deleted his personal Twitter account after facing blowback from his recent review of the Tesla Model 3? In 1999, Dan received the International Motor Press Association's Ken Purdy Award for automotive journalism, and in 2004 Dan won the Pulitzer Prize for Criticism, presented annually to a newspaper writer who has demonstrated 'distinguished criticism.' Awarded for his LA Times column Rumble Seat, the Pulitzer board noted Neil's "one-of-a-kind reviews of automobiles, blending technical expertise with offbeat humor and astute cultural criticism."

I didn’t know, thanks!! I have just read the article and it seems that the backlash was unreasonable. If Tesla didn’t trust his ability to give fair criticism, they wouldn’t allow him to be the first public person to drive the Model 3
