'No need to defend me.'

While studying at the Asian College of Journalism, I and some 11 other students were told about the awesome man named Bora Zivkovic and his work as a blogger with Scientific American. To learn about a man with such talents with writing and articulation as he possesses - talents that I have envied and aspired for for years - conduct himself so horribly is a shock, and the fall of a hero.

I understand that there is a greater problem at play here - about predators being everywhere and predation being ubiquitous - but I think I need to be able to personally confess that, while wincing against the stab of sexual harassment being prevalent, I also winced because it had to be Bora Zivkovic who had conducted himself thus.

What happened? Read this. And then this.
