Thayer Evans has admitted to taking bribes to present stories in certain ways.
Seriously? Then why does he still have a job?

Because it's never been admitted "on the record". I'm actually very surprised that SI would hire him and that Pete Thamel would associate with him.

Thayer's Tactics Questioned

quote:

So, the question for Fox Sports is the same as the question that faced Murdoch: Did Evans’ editors know that he was breaking the law to get information? (Obviously, they did.) And the fact that the article posted on the Fox Sports Web site shows that the editors also endorsed this reporting method.


quote:

His shoddy reporting of the recruiting of a Texas prospect apparently cost him his gig with The New York Times. This could well be a repeat of past ethical shortcuts, albeit with a company that seems more open to the tactic.
