He’s one of very few people doing this type of investigative journalism online, and is - as cringey as it sounds - the closest we’ve got to an IRL ‘internet superhero’. Ubi was a bad call but the information was credible - as an insider, the informant was in a unique position to spin his story in such a way. I don’t blame him for making the bad call, and I don’t think he should ‘own up to it’. That one story is far from representative of his broader achievements, and comparing it to the concerted efforts other more malicious actors in the media landscape is disingenuous at best.
