Reddit apologizes
The reddit staff and the millions of people on reddit around the world
deeply regret that this happened. We have apologized privately to the
family of missing college student Sunil Tripathi, as have various users
and moderators. We want to take this opportunity to apologize public
for the pain they have had to endure.

Questions for journalists
• Shouldn’t we have the same
standards for letters & comments?
• Don’t people deserve to know who
is attacking them?
• Should social media set the rules?
• Is it better to be first or right?
• Aren’t we risking action by someone
else if we don’t take responsibility?
