    Aw, here I was ready to make a joke and the truth of the story was a bummer. Thanks for pointing this out ASAP.

    That said, I’ll be standing by for when there’s a story “CEO who earned a fortune in blood diamonds and animal cruelty accidentally commits suicide when strangling self during masturbation.”
