I agree. I WANT to like him, I think he tries (with varying degrees of success) to bring to light stuff that maybe doesn't get a mention in any other media and that should be commended. But the guy is just so CONDESCENDING. Everything seems to be such an emotional attack on him, and we (the viewers) are fucking idiots if we don't "Get" his take. That's not journalism, its reporting and opinions. Want me to take you seriously bro? Present me the facts! let me make up my own opinions and don't act like any other opinion is wrong.
But should the guy be attacked? Absolutely not. I haven't been following the story all that closely, but it deffo sounds like the police are failing to take shit seriously (surprise surprise). I don't agree with his take on a lot of things but still stand to protect anyone trying to fight corruption, even if they are a bit of a dick about it.
