do ask do tell

I would not publish this article because there just isn't enough solid proof yet. You could get in trouble for libel for publishing this at this point because all it is is rumors stemmed from one person who doesn't have much credibility. This blogger could be making the story up for a number of reasons, and you don't want to publish something that could turn out to not be true, because that could majorly damage your own credibility. If you just waited for a while and tried to find some proof either way, it would be a much more powerful story because you could use facts instead of just speculation. Not only would it be a better story, but then you also wouldn't have to worry about a libel suit or damage to your credibility.
