I don’t know. I think all of us are ‘people who did something wrong’ at
different times in our lives. I believe most of us would take an opportunity to create and produce a show or content about something we love (such as sports) and be paid to do it because others love watching the content you create. But, I don’t think most of us would take that shows content to a level where creating TMZ-like, national enquirer-like, social rumors that negatively impact the perception of other real people is something we’d do. Look at all the people in media or sports talk who don’t do this as alternative examples.

Now they may not get paid as much because their content doesn’t attract the viewers, but just because someone does something well or for money doesn’t mean they don’t have questionable moral standards. And the fact that it happens regularly, is an indicator that they are fine with doing it—otherwise they’d stay way further away from that edge—they just may feel bad about doing it or apologize for doing because of the backlash and negative impact it could have on them.

But certainly, you can come to know a persons character by what they regularly produce versus instances of giving grace where they may have crossed a line in a moment that was out of character for them.
