I found that story... extremely difficult to follow.

 

Ya mean the asterisk correcting the crux of the article didn't bring you around? JFC, if you eff something like that up -- ya know, who's the plaintiff and who's the defendant -- re-write the whole damn story, don't correct it with freaking asterisks. I skipped right over that asterisk and didn't understand the whole story till the end. This isn't print; ya can correct an internet story pretty easily. Instead they compounded the problem.

 

It lacks a link between the departure and the hiring of a third-party investigator, besides timing. Hiring a third party to evaluate the company’s handling of a sensitive matter isn’t a lot of meat. Nor is the fact that the investigator was hired after she learned of the complaint.

There’s a story here about a major media company hiring a third party to evaluate its response to a sexual-assault report. It’s fair to note that the EIC left two weeks later. Connecting the two without backing it up by attributing sources is ... not ideal.

 

Link now updated with 100% more update.

Still not clear what didn't happen.
