4. Some people at Huffpo and other places (maybe here too)

have defended this, or at least seem to condone what happened because he used an 'alias'

Which of course no other author in the history of mankind has ever done.
I know this for a fact because I checked with Mark Twain, Stephen King, JK Rowling/Robert Galbraith, Lewis Carroll, Stan Lee, Joseph Conrad, Voltaire, George Orwell (which makes the whole thing purely ironic), Silence Dogood and Richard Saunders
They all assured me that NO authors have ever used an alias or pen name that they know of
