Does anybody have any updates on the Madison situation?

3 years ago by testeronious to c/linustechtips

It's been 8 months since a investigation was called to look into the allegations. Is there anything published? Do we have any estimate to when it'll be published?

I personally don't think we're getting anything. I always saw the "it takes time" point as a way to duck the issue until the community would forget about it entirely.

So, all in all, if you really want to get some answers, maybe wait enough time to give LMG more than enough time to investigate; so much so that using the "this wasn't a reasonable amount of time" defence strategy would be impossible, and then try to get the community to care again. And ask for answers. I personally do not see this happening, ever, but I hope I'm wrong.

I mean, if it really has been 8 months of radio silence, that's plenty bad already in my opinion. Even if they have no results yet, they're a media company, they should provide as much transparency about the process as possible.

In sentiment sure but this is about serious personal matters. The radio silence is also there to shield Maddison who may feel prompted to publicly respond towards ltts public updates.

Her lawyers should be calling ltt for updates but we are just bystanders.

Her lawyers

That's assuming she can hire any. Her case is far from clear cut, I'm not convinced anyone would take her case for a proportion of a potential settlement.

She probably has no recourse.

I am not even sure how this happens…

I think you're expecting something that is unlikely to happen - there's a bunch of privacy related issues, employment law restrictions etc that potentially mean they will never comment further on it.
