You defend VA downthread while only decrying Gawker as being unethical.

One takes photos of girls without their consent/knowledge while the other blurs the line of good journalistic taste. Yet it's only the latter that's unethical?

It's not difficult to impute which you approve of.

That's crossing into personal attack, or at least sidling up to it. Please don't sidle that way here.

In nuanced discussion, which is what we're hoping for on HN, there's plenty of ground between criticizing not-X and defending X.

I never defended VA, and never have. I think both were unethical and wrong.
