Saying that people are afraid to talk about the story is just an excuse for poor sourcing[1]. Quite the opposite, people would love to pile onto Arrington and have done just that. It is weird to talk about a story not being talked about that everybody is actually talking about it. [1] I know this first hand. I lived with Arrington the entire 3-4 months he dated the original accuser (not the 8 years she claims). Nobody has been in touch with me, or any of the other people who lived in the house at the time. Nobody has been in touch with other friends who know the situation well. Nobody has also been in touch with anybody close to the original accusor, I know this because if they did, they would find out something that makes this story far more interesting but unlikely. I DM'd the Gawker journalist with a tip that he ignored - which suggests he is more interested in an agenda than finding out the truth. On that note, if any journalist wants to do a real story of getting to the bottom of this, I, and many other people, would be more than happy to talk to them.
