You're not understanding or you do and don't care that a REPORTER has a undisclosed personal relationship that at the very least crosses over into SOME intimate behavior with someone they report on.
Without that context, you are being fed what is essentially propaganda.
That's my issue. She obviously could not disclose this as her husband and Vrabel wife might have some questions and because she didn't disclose it, how do YOU know what part of what she's reporting is real vs pillow talk vs curried favor.
It really tells you how far journalism has fallen when people straight up don't give a **** about ethical dignity.
