Yes, it does.

A professional reviewer's real bosses are the readership. That's especially true in the internet age.

The publication is unprofessional, not the person.
Both are unprofessional, in this instance, in my opinion.

What readers want is irrelevant to how professional one is.
I totally disagree.

The paparazzi's analogy is apt in the sense that Satuski is doing a unsavory job but is following all the rules. So she is professional.
No, she's not. One of the core rules of a reviewer is, you know, to actually take in (watch, visit, etc...) whatever it is that they're reviewing.

Not "feeling bad" about your job is not a parental failure. Driving your kids to do drugs and abusing your kids are failures. Let's not blow this trivial oversight over the proportion.
It's not trivial when it becomes a continuous problem.

Of course it is.
No it's not.

Do all of us have to personally be employed in politics in order to legitimately object to corruption in government?

Of course not.

You're setting a ridiculous standard, in my view.

A person can have multiple motivations for one act.
