That's a splendidly clear demonstration of the double standard:
He believes that when people are trying to minimise their taxes, the only question is whether what they do is legal; "we" are supposed not to disapprove so long as that is the case.
But when journalists report information they have obtained, the idea of ethics is suddenly back. For some reason he doesn't expect "us" to think "We should expect journalists to publish things that will sell newspapers; so long as it isn't illegal we shouldn't disapprove".
