Tesla's FM Radio Cut Sparks Backlash

- The change makes Tesla the first major automaker to remove over-the-air radio entirely.
- This move comes as Congress considers the AM Radio for Every Vehicle Act, a bipartisan bill that would require automakers to include AM radio as a standard safety feature.

The NAB, a supporter of the AM Act, is troubled by the exclusion, highlighting the importance of broadcast access in cars.
