Zero Hedge's content is conspiratorial, anti-establishment and economically pessimistic,[3] and it occasionally publishes misleading information.[4] Critics have alleged that the site "reliably peddles Russian propaganda".[5] Former Zero Hedge writer Colin Lokey said that he was pressured to frame issues in a way he felt was "disingenuous," summarizing its political stances as "Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladimir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft."[1] Zero Hedge founder Daniel Ivandjiiski, in response, said that Lokey could write "anything and everything he wanted directly without anyone writing over it."[1]

Are the Hollywood Reporter and Zero Hedge the same entity? And the author, Michael Wolff seems to have reputable credentials re Wikipedia: " Michael Wolff (born August 27, 1953) is an American author, essayist, and journalist who is a regular columnist and contributor to USA Today, The Hollywood Reporter, and the UK edition of GQ."
