I'm curious as to whether you're complaining about the story. What do you mean by "spiked"? The coverage seems fair and open-ended

  Fowler's statement describes ongoing and systematic patterns of discrimination, retribution and harassment against and of women and its facilitation by the human resource department. The headline leads with Uber's damage control message and ignores the most serious part of Fowler's description.

      My remarks: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13697010 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13697010 The piece is consistent with the Rogue Actor narrative as is the subsequently disclosed investigative structure which involves lawyering up. Most likely to assess the legal risk and perhaps to come up with a strategy that allows truthful but non-incriminating statements should the fallout turn out to entail deposition by hostile lawyers. Still nobody fired and the official narrative is that the CEO is moved to tears rather than taking personal responsibility.
