I almost confused your link with Wikipedia...

Wikipedia policy about biographies of living people prevents this kind of “expose” type article from being written.
With good reason in most cases.
I’m not very familiar with the reasoning behind Wikipedia’s decisions. In this case, the controversies seem highly relevant to the papers being churned up. I appreciate the effort the authors of the rationwiki article put forth. It’s distributed citizen journalism.
