I am in no way a fan of the Failing New York Times (if I may quote a prominent contemporary statesman), but am I missing something by thinking that this is overblown? They haven't printed his name, only asked if they may do so. I also don't see where they threatened him with exposure, but the article claims they have.

They didn’t ask. He asked them not to, and they refused and said they were going to publish the article about him even without his cooperation.
