BJ did post some general statements of support for Jay without addressing whatever happened. You also have to understand that BJ is about the last person in the world who'd be able to maintain his objectivity and distance in a situation like this, which I guess is both a strength and a flaw. Still, no matter what BJ would offer has to be 'grain of salt' stuff for now.

I don't know WhoJedi that well so I couldn't comment on this much one way or the other, and even if I did, I'd know better. Best to just wait and see what facts come out. Folks blasting poker media have to understand that the bums and thieves among poker media occur at just about the same percentage as they do in the general poker-playing populace.
I don't know him at all other than seeing him at WSOP, following him on twitter etc but I know a lot of people seem to like him and have decent enough regards to campaign for him to get the stars social media job. It doesn't really matter to me if he did what they say he did and quite honestly I wouldn't even have a problem if he was able to keep his job. Obviously it's a shitty thing to do (if true) but god knows we have given plenty of people second and third and fourth chances before. If the allegations are true and he comes out to give an apology that's truthful and heartfelt then it is what is and let's move on IMO


Edit...obv it does matter what he did and I'm not sure to phrase that to get it across...I guess maybe I'm just not outraged by what he did? Suffice it to say I think it's shitty just not OMG I can't believe it shitty
