If a journalist is complicit in helping an extortion attempt with one of their stories, then, yes, any ethical journalist has a responsibility to update it. This will (hopefully) be a pretty rare occurrence.
- stormbrew 5y agoWhich is it, was he duped or was he complicit? These are very different accusations, and exactly what I mean by begging the question of his knowledge. You (and it seems ubiquiti) are assuming he knew this at some point where he claims he didn't, which makes him not just a victim of misinformation but an active perpetrator. Proving that in court seems like it's going to be very hard. Never mind proving that he did it intentionally and with malice. It's not like he gains anything really by not expanding on the story as we know it, and as I've mentioned, it's not even clear what ubiquiti gains from expecting him to talk about new facts that make them look bad.
