Might as well be broadcasting to the world you're incompetent as the self-proclaimed journalist specializing in such things. The MSM has been full of headlines reporting on Billion-dollar lawsuits for this very thing for years now! You'd have to be living under a rock to be so ignorant, let alone be a journalist specializing in this space.
You're either full of fail, or writing fiction, publishing the above two statements.
Not to take away from the tragedy, it sounds like an awful thing to experience.
And you're doing, what, exactly?
Criticizing a journalist for what they published in The Atlantic. Surely you're capable of seeing the difference.
Edit: In case it's not obvious, I'm referring to things like Sandy Hook and the belligerent internet trolls who accosted the grieving parents, leading to Billion-dollar lawsuits. How can any journalist specializing in this space be unaware of that? Nothing to do with medicine/vaccines. I practically live under a rock myself and even I know about it.
Truly a lost soul and I do feel sorry for him. Hope he can just move on and find something else to do with his life and career that doesn't involve fighting the internet.
