Message:	I found this article at autospeed.com and thought you might be interested in reading it: 'Fools' Paradise' - Scepticism and cynicism are your best tools... It is impossible for a reader of automotive journalism to gather a true and complete picture of what is going on - to a greater or lesser degree, you are all being kept in the dark. In automotive journalism there are no investigative reporters prepared to blow the top off an industry or reveal products that are being sold in breach of the Trade Practices Act. There are almost no hard-hitting interviews where questions are aggressively asked (or if any do in fact occur, they're never presented unadorned so that all that was said can be seen). Nearly every automotive journalist and/or publisher receives financial benefit from car manufacturers - press cars are freely loaned, with that (lack of) financial exchange never mentioned. In fact, the vast majority of automotive journalism is either advertorial or straight entertainment... and yes, that includes the 'tests' and other stories which in any other journalistic field would be regarded as 'hard news' - and so would be written with a completely different regard for the facts...
