And one of the worst things about this story, more of the reporter’s reader are upset she might have lied about her golf training than the fact she committed suicide because of the story.

I have never really liked Grantland on the few occasions I’ve managed to find my way to that corner of the Internet. Too much arcane tl;dr. That said, to adopt such a callous approach to not only your commitment as a journalist, but your culpability in the despondent suicide of another human being is just sickening.

I’m sorry, you just don’t understand. Their need for page views outweighs anything.

That “reporter” is such an asshole and the worst part is assholes like him refuse to accept responsibility for doing any wrong when they drove a person to take their own life.

This reporter owes it to his readers to explain how he feels about becoming part of the story. He doesn’t seem to be aware he is part of the story.

Even if he feels no responsibility and believes he acted 100% ethically, the explanation is due; wise-cracking on Twitter makes him look like a monster.
