this man's claims to fame:

- pretended to suffer a seizure induced by twitter
- brought a fake binder on live tv and made a buffoon of himself
- now has been caught watching anime porn of varying stripes I'm sure
- has attempted to lie or cover this up but the internet remembers all

This has been an incredible journey and I bet he's done lots of other dumb poo poo too.

I think this is about when he arranged to meet(and pay) someone who he thought to be underaged and was being "sold to the highest bidder for the night", turned out the person was not underaged(18 I think?), and even though he thought the person might be he didn't alert police.

So he sent $2,000, got on a plane after not telling anyone what he was doing, and didn't disclose that he was a reporter until really late on, then he said he wanted to write a story about him and then asked for the money back.


From: http://www.slate.com/articles/news_and_politics/press_box/2007/03/eichenwalds_weird_checkbook_journalism.html

But also in that article is this:

Given that little snippet, I assume he has a reputation for doing good work exposing child abusers(including what he did eventually write with the berry kid), so it might not be that he was actually trying to buy action with a suspected minor and was instead very very stupid about everything.

There was also a second payment to Berry not mentioned in the article above for an additional 1000USD

and

This episode led to a story in NPR and other horrifying details such as an account believed to have been from Eichenwald “had high-level administrative access” to the child porn site “JustinsFriends, which would have allowed him to closely monitor the site’s business.”

Also from that article:

Eichenwald explains to the AP that he didn't tell his editors about the payment because it slipped his mind.

No, the hero is that guy that assumes the pedophile was telling the truth about that bullshit. The hero is you.

I'm gonna take a stand here. It may not be a popular one. But I strongly believe that giving pedophiles a seizure is a good thing.

I dont. I think pedophiles should seek treatment to prevent them from offending OR we take all the pedophiles and nazis that want to kill each other and throw them in a televised battle royale

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.

I imagine he'd handle it the same way he's handled everything other time he's been called out on something and threaten to sue her for not admitting to being the driving force behind a venture to determine once and for all whether or not cartoon tentacle sex really exists.

A fair warning to all who come to this gallery because of Kurt Eichenwald's B-Chiku SNAFU:

Diss Kurt, not this manga. Don't gently caress with hentai in general or its fanbase, either. I know that some of you came here from places like /pol/, r/KotakuInAction and r/The_Donald; The last thing we need is partisan dipshits, alt-right assholes, and political conspiracy theorists using this event as an opportunity to advocate for their own anti-hentai crusade.

As long as it's consensual, of age and not harming anyone in the production? I could give a poo poo about what porn one whacks off too.

Eichenwald is a doofus though.
