Larry,
Tesla got treated pretty well for an American company. 
TG has figured out that, since they did not start a war or get 
shot (more likely) during their tour of the US Southeast a
couple years ago, they obviously lead a charmed life. 
Tesla should have taken a page from Chrysler and told TG 
that if they want to test one, they need to buy it first. 

I disagree with your conclusion that TG harmed the company.
You would be surprised at the number of viewers that are 
quite capable of watching that show and seeing the reality of 
the car rather than the perception Jemmy was throwing out.
Besides, as the guy said years ago, all publicity is good 
publicity; Tesla could not have gotten more exposure than that
from any other show and it WILL benefit them far more than 
a lawsuit would.
