'John Broder [...] made “few conclusions that are unassailable.”'

While, yes, the bit in quotation did appear in the piece, it was in the following:

"In the matter of the Tesla Model S and its now infamous test drive, there is still plenty to argue about and few conclusions that are unassailable."

I would deem that a "misquote", though if you insist it's a serious mischaracterization of the context of a quote or something, I'm not sure I'll argue too strenuously over the semantics.
