Are you kidding? Can you even imagine how much it costs him to constantly face lawsuit after lawsuit? And how much his investigations cost? Nothing wrong with him asking for donations.
Not kidding definitely not kidding. I actually don’t mind the need to ask for donations what I object to is the constant My life is in the line for this scoop give now followed by wait wait and then a dribble. Not the kind of reporting I expected from the man who founded one of the last bastions of journalistic integrity until the big board melt down. I am not randomly criticizing I was a HUGE fan and supported when I could. We need him but we need the him that didn’t use sensationalism to be different just like everyone else. I don’t doubt he faces threats but more than once he took the path of least resistance and cried wolf. Not sure why maybe the story didn’t pan out maybe his source bailed maybe he was desperate. What I know is it left a reek of the same yellow journalism that we see too often and I just can’t continue singing his praises. I want to be wrong I want to eat crow pie here. Genuinely.

but… he delivers the goods
I don't disagree, but @joanofsnark below has my same take, better than I could say. Just doesn't feel the same.
