A federal judge dismissed the lawsuit in August 2011
La stessa società Village Voice si difende con veemenza sul proprio sito.
In conclusione, è bello dire che la cattiva GS guadagnava sfruttando sessualmente i bambini, ma quanto è vero? Ovvero, è fatto apposta? Cioè l'articolo passa l'idea che i vampiri che siedono nel Board di GS si riuniscono e decidono dove succhiare il sangue, ma in realtà devono stare attenti a queste cose non solo per i danni d'immagine, ma in US per le possibili class action che possono seguire. Questo probabilmente ha spinto la vendita in piena bufera giornalistica - meglio perdere poco subito e lavarsene le mani che troppo dopo (come il celebre detto: "meglio una piccola perdita oggi che un grosso default domani").
Slovenia
Kristof consistently uses Slovenia in his New York Times op-ed columns as a flail to shame American healthcare. For example: "... it’s scandalous that babies born in the United States are less likely to survive their first year than babies born in Slovenia" (31 January 2006); "American children are twice as likely to die by the age of 5 as children in Portugal, Spain or Slovenia" (28 February 2009); and "No wonder we spend so much on medical care, and yet have some health care statistics that are worse than Slovenia’s" (12 September 2009). However, his 31 January 2006 blog ("Apologies to Slovenia") had expressed regret at the offense he had caused. On 15 September 2009 the acting consul general for Slovenia, Melita Gabrič, objected to Kristof's use of Slovenia as a "derisory sort of punch line."
