Which is really unfair. Why does the media continually do that when they don't treat other car companies the same? Especially when it's clear the fault is not the vehicle?

How is it "clear the fault is not the vehicle"?
Legacy car makers probably have a longstanding relationship with the media?
Because Musk->Tesla and Musk == bad according to the desired narrative to which a large fraction of the chattering classes adhere. While other car companies are generically bad (i.e. 'big company', 'climate', 'capitalism' etc.) Tesla is double-plus ungood and as such "we've always been at war with Tesla". If Musk ever decides to flip to the other side that'd quickly change and "we'd never have been at war with Tesla".
