If you're going to comment on something like the Rab Florence article and following controversy, it's not enough to simply say 'I've linked the articles at the bottom'. Provide a recap, get people basically up to speed, at the very least give some idea of the nature of the case.
The opening diatribe of this is so poorly written in those regards that even someone like myself, who does know what this story is and has followed it, struggled at times to understand exactly what was being said. References to 'he' 'she', who? Theres more than 1 'he' and 1 'she' that have weighed on this, theres more than 1 'he' for sure who could actively be referenced as part of the initial controversy.
I don't think a 'journalist' should need that explaining.
With regards Rab himself, he's a great bloke, I miss Consolevania to this day. He wouldn't work on the Bombcast though - a vast portion of the audience wouldn't understand a word he would say, and I don't think an interview would put across Rab's personality terribly accurately/well either. He has a very particular style and humour that has to stand on it's own merit. I really hope he does come back with something like Consolvania or Videogaiden. There was nothing quite like it. His growing success in TV comedy might put those hopes on hold though.
