Wall Street Journal writers Dion Nissenbaum and Siobhan Gorman have apparently been reprimanded and put on temporary leave for a rogue piece of writing in the journal. Nothing gets printed in a newspaper with out the approval of an editor so in my opinion there is no such thing as a “Rogue piece of writing” in the journal.
So unless one of these guys is an editor there should be a third name mentioned here as being reprimanded.
So news paper’s websites go pretty fast and loose on editorial oversight so occasionally something makes it on to the net that should never have been published but I am not aware that anything like that having happened on the WSJ.

"...it’s just not fair for them to leverage their past accomplishments in business." This is pure idiocy of the highest order.
That is exactly what politicians and journalists and professors and sports figures and everyone else does.
Would companies be willing to pay Bill Clinton $500,000 to give a speech if he was Bill Clinton, former truck driver?
Why do they think companies pay high dollars to hire ex-senators and retired generals as lobbyists if not for their past?

"...it’s just not fair for them to leverage their past accomplishments in business." They mean it is not fair that some people are better than they are. This is demented.

Millions of ex-servicemen/women used their military training to earn a living after discharge. This twit Webb thinks welfare/unemployment is better?

If life was fair these guys would be shoveling cow manure in a 1950s style dairy, but then there would be a chance that they might handle some of the milk and milk drinkers might be in trouble.
Maybe we are safer the way it is.
life just ain,t fair.
