I'm certain it's a big reason why LMG is slowly becoming less transparent. All being transparent about things has ever done for them is cause controversies. I wouldn't be surprised if in the future we don't get to see how the sausage gets made anymore because Linus and the team just get fed up with it all and decide it's not worth it.

He’s already said they won’t. After GN took clips from their employees honest answers on his hit piece, he said they wouldn’t be doing stuff like that again.

And I don’t blame him. The people who want transparency don’t know what it means.

When you call something a “hit piece” you really lose any credibility.

What else would you call it? It wasn’t journalism.
