The media response to this has been shameful. They've called it an 'alleged firebombing' even though the police have been quite upfront about it being a firebombing, and many are phrasing their reports in such a way that make it seem like he's some way at fault for this.
For those who haven't been following this, he recently covered the infiltration of organized crime into politics and regulatory institutions. This is almost certainly related.
Absolutely disgusting.
