That is a possibility. I remember seeing a clip of him having dinner with Obama. On the wall of the restaurant was a symbol that was in Chinese I think. There was a dig done on that symbol. I don't remember the details of the dig, but the general impression of it all was that the symbol led back to pedophilia and child trafficking. I think it was speculated that Bourdain had that meal with Obama with the symbol intentionally positioned to be seen on the video.
