Oh, absolutely. I'm also entertaining that as a possibility myself. I'm just arguing that news journals should cover events like this anyway, because they almost always are noteworthy in one way or another.
There is an unbelievable amount of corruption everywhere you look: politics, technology, the valley. We've almost become too fatigued, we almost don't care, it doesn't shock us anymore. That's upsetting to me. One way corruption can perhaps be cut short is if we keep a close eye on these things, check out what's suspicious (I'd say this Bezos-hosted party qualifies as being suspicious, even if there is absolutely zero de facto evidence of there being corruption), and jump on first sign of wrong-doing. If we'd done that earlier with News of The World, less messy shit would have taken place. If we'd been watching Steve Jobs closely in the beginning, maybe we could have caught him before he did that collusion shit with the other CEOs in the valley.
