Honestly, the article did not belong on this site to begin with really, it had nothing to do with video games (or the East Asian articles that gets put up sometimes).

I'm not going to comment either!
As someone who disagrees with Patricia's point of view outlined in the article, I still don't believe revising the article was the right thing to do.
Actually I was thinking it was...
I... No, I'm not gonna comment on this one. Let's just say that I have yet to read an article from Ms. Hernandez that I would liked.
"I think better expresses the piece's original intent"
Masterful backpedaling.
She criticized him for defending himself. There is no miscommunication there, that is a fact. How can you defend yourself too much from a rape accusation that is baseless and has no evidence? An accusation that could ruin his career, and he's defending himself too much? That isn't a miscommunication, that's BS is what…
Changing the title does very little to address the dangerous accusation Patrica made.
Wow, just based off that I have a pretty good guess who wrote it.
Unfortunately, as cleaned up as this is, your words against Temkin were still horrid in your prior article, and you still should give a formal apology for such unwarranted slander; not just go 'Oh wait, that's making everyone mad, so I meant to say *this*.'
Though I appreciate the revision, what Patricia has to answer for is not the bias in the original editorial. The issue here is when push came to shove, she essentially branded all accused rapists as guilty before proven innocent. Until that is addressed, I don't see anyone letting their foot off the pedal in this…
I still can't believe that she actually criticized him for defending himself.
Explain to me exactly HOW this is "something that we, as a gaming community, should talk about." This appears (and appeared in its original form) to be Patricia getting on a soap box and going off on a topic that has little, if anything, to do with gaming. And I wish I could say that it was a one-off, but when I see…
Removing the comments (i.e. evidence) from the original article and whitewashing Patrica of all wrongdoing is completely unacceptable. She needs to apologize and just go back to writing Pokemon articles until she proves that she is responsible enough to handle serious discussion.
That's it? You archived the original and got rid of all the comments? Patricia needs to apologize about villifying Temkin. How can you say you think everyone is presumed innocent when Patricia herself had this exchange with Dude Guru in the original thread?
I almost couldn't handle the amount of sense difference between yours and hers that fast. please warn me next time.
"For us as the public, that's the only useful thing he could have done."
She's literally making up shit and going along with it now. Seeing only the shit she wants to see.
He addressed it in public because the accusation was a public one. It's not like she called him up and made the claims, she posted it in a public forum.
