Maybe. If it's judged significant. Which, in this case, it clearly is not, since nobody else seems to be running with it. Have you read their follow-up stories? It looks *awfully* like a vendetta.
Nah. It looks like alternative press follow-ups. They tend to run hard with their exclusives.

I'm troubled here by the shifting argument. First it's from a tabloid. Except it's not from a tabloid - it's from a reputable paper that did original research. But then when it's pointed out that NOR isn't relevant to this either it becomes insignificant.
Still not the case - if we're having an article on the guy, this is a sensible thing to put in it.
