The article talks as if this one act of misconduct (which we only know about because Buffet announced it) proves that Buffet is always letting stuff like this happen, which frankly there's no evidence of whatsoever. The only piece of the article that could be used to justify the bait-headline is the fact that he is growing old and can't live for ever - in fact, that was the only statement in there worth making at all. Not exactly grounbreaking journalism to reveal that a man who is 80 years old won't be able to keep doing his job for the rest of eternity. Frankly, I expect better of the NY Times.
