He (Sterling) might be. From what's published by the media, he is definitely not a likeable person. That's not the verdict. He might have contributed m,millions to orphans (I am not suggesitng that he did). Would he still be a bad person? Was Henry Ford a bad person? Let's take modern day controversies blown out of proportions by media coverage: Are Rob Ford, Cal Wenzel and Sean Chu bad people?
P.S. Did not see the post above re Henry Ford. I agree with that. The magnitude of racial hatred and Nazi support makes him a bad person on my books. But that is not an opinion shared universally.
