We weren't talking about "the public interest," we were talking about what one's clients should know about the external lives of the people they work with. Why would that also be contingent on having a large following? There's no consistency here, just "yes for me, no for thee."

We don't need to know SSC's exact conflicts of interests to judge the quality of his work, or to judge the veracity of his assertions. We can just read his articles and judge them by the merits of their evidence and arguments.

I don't understand why anyone frames much of anything in terms of what is "deserved" rather than what's pragmatic and sensible in the interest of a society where good ideas can live in the public domain prior to absolutely perfect consensus over them.

Why should your coworkers' and clients' right to find everything you've ever written be a function of how many people think you're worth listening to?

Insofar as Scott talks about working w patients, I've only ever seen him explicitly use fictionalized vignettes. To break confidentiality would be a much bigger issue. Would I want to know if my own doctor fictionalized an account based on me? Sure. Am I entitled to that? No.

Legal standards pertaining to defamation are totally orthogonal to the conversation here, and if it weren't incredibly self-serving I doubt you'd even bring it up. Consider for one second the implications of selectively ruining only people whose ideas are well-read.

“Don’t pick fights with people who buy ink by the barrel” still very much applies Problem is the newsroom still thinks they’re the ones buying wholesale
