Just not seeing this at all.
Brandi was clearly posting Sklansky's private emails without his consent, in an attempt to blackmail him via her threats to cast his relationship in a highly unflattering light.
NWP, by posting those emails, not only facilitated that blackmail attempt, but actually acted as co-conspirators -- publishing things that, here in the UK at least, would almost certainly be enough to win a libel action against them -- solely in an attempt to drive traffic.
I like Druff's posts, and he seems like a decent enough guy, but his name is on the masthead, so he gets to take responsibility for what his site publishes.
