Because they're unrelated? Mixing in the Waymo suit does nothing to clarify the situation around Jones. Sure it's juicy, but it's a different story.

  Not necessarily. It broke within six months. It's believable that he didn't know anything about the parentage of Otto, and when the lawsuit hit, he realized just how screwed up of a situation he found himself in and bailed. We can't say it is related, but we can't say it's not related either.

    > We can't say it is related, but we can't say it's not related either. ...and that's why you should leave it out of the headline.

    That's a fair point, I hadn't considered that. I still think leaving it out of the article is fair though. Since we don't know one way or another and there isn't anything pointing in that direction just yet.

  It's at least as related as the sexism controversy, which is mentioned. The title and subtitle both blame Uber's current turmoil and controversy, and the Alphabet suit may easily become the biggest issue. If the CEO conspired to steal tech from Waymo then the entire management structure at Uber is going to be in serious, serious trouble with its board and with the law.
