This thread should be examined by psychology students to show the glaring difference between those that use critical thinking when making a judgment and those that allow cognitive bias to creep into their judgment.

I'm not a Watchtower Troll. In fact, I was quite the activist when I first left.
My issue surrounding this "event" is with the reaction and framing of it.
It reminds me of tabloid journalism. Calling it BOTTLEGATE. People saying, "Oh, he's done for!"
I click on the video and I go, "That's it? That's what everyone's fussing about?"
It's nowhere near the level of a Watergate scandal like everyone is implying.
Here's a list of 10 scandals. You tell me if this "bottlegate" business is worse than any of the others (except the "rolex" incident).
1. Crisis of Conscience
2. ARC
3. Pedo Database
4. Abuse Settlements/Court Cases
5. Blood Transfusion Victims
6. Leah Remini Special on JWs
7. Anti-Gay Kids video
8. Bunker Video
9. #bottlegate
10. "Rolex" on Sam Herd on JW Broadcasting
