I am happy to see a first-hand account of this that backs up my understanding of what actually happened (and am shocked to see it published on HuffPo). Sadly, this won't get nearly the attention that the original did, because it's more fun to scream about sexism and threats against children. I'm guessing that, unlike the target of their story, neither Ben nor Sarah will get a single letter from the Senate asking why they abused their position in the media and sensationalized this event to the point of absurdity. Sadder still, Sarah Lacy will have better ad revenue for the month than she's probably ever had - from what essentially was a fabrication. This whole thing was disgusting, as was HN's wholesale acceptance of Sarah Lacy's nonsense as fact. I expected better.
