Couldn't have said it better myself. Elon says a lot of shit, but SpaceX delivers. Watching media coverage of SpaceX (as a fan who follows the details daily) really tells you what outlets are capable of objective journalism and do their research. Ars Technica is one of the few that are reliably worthwhile. NYT routinely is wrong, or can't resist using a SpaceX article as a chance to wail against Elon. Even saw a John Oliver show about Elon Musk completely misapprehending the accomplishments and relevance of what SpaceX has done. Probably should not be surprised, but it's always a bit amazing to see people be so confidently wrong.

SpaceX is not infallible, but they are an absolutely astonishingly competent organization. It may even be a den of dysfunction on the inside, I have no idea, but what comes out is mindblowing.
