After Gawker is this really surprising?

The test will be when an incontestable true story about Thiel with qualities that don't reflect well on his public persona is subjected to test.

I'm unhappy that the most likely criticism will be people don't like him, or his wierd religious sensationalist statements when the primary concern is his profoundly undemocratic views of society. It's not about how nice he is, it's about how he uses his wealth.
