    OK so then where's the line of who the media can report on and who they can't?

      I would say if the person's found guilty of whatever they were accused of, if they've doxxed themselves, or I'd they're a public figure.

      But I'm not media czar and this is pretty half baked.

        Fair.

        I just think that there's a public interest in knowing who DFV is. His actions are indisputably newsworthy and I think that uncovering the identity of people whose actions are newsworthy is a legitimate thing for journalists to do.

          Yeah I mean this case specifically he doxxed himself. He did a interview with the WSJ and have his name & city so he's out there at this point.

          I'm just speaking more of media in general.
