He did some reporting that Hadal al-Ali approved of?

Other than that, I don't see anything in the materials posted here.

One anonymous tweeter says "emails showed he is working with Regime and giving them infos about BabaAmer."

Where are those emails?

I hope people on all sides will be careful about smearing journalists as collaborating with one side or the other unless there is some real evidence for it.
