Why? They aren't the only ones out there.
Why is it that someone is automatically called a Earnhardt fan is they say something negative against Jeff Gordon or Jimmie Johnson? Why is that if anyone says anything negative against Earnhardt Jr., that they must me a Gordon or Johnson fan? I don't get it. There are other drivers out there, not everyone pulls for one of those three. Yes, they have large followings and their fans are vocal, but just because I, or anyone else, says something negative against Johnson or Gordon, it does not automatically make us an Earnhardt fan or vice versa.
Remember, there are 43 cars in the field each week and they all have fans, maybe not as many as Gordon, Johnson or Earnhardt Jr., but they do have fans, that's something the media should keep in mind too.

I agree, just because I am a Gordon hater, they think I am a Jr. fan. Yeah, I like Jr, but not the best. Earnhardt Sr is my favorite of all time, but right now my favorite is Jeremy Mayfield. I like Ryan Newman and Tony Stewart also.

It's not just the automatic association with a driver they assume.
It's the level of hate, bile and invective that is also heaped on you when they make that assumption.
