Actually, I disagree here (Provided the allegations are true, of course). While, from the perspective of someone who has been a boyfriend, I find the concept of my GF sleeping with 5 people while we're together (no matter the reason) abhorrent, and she wouldn't be my GF for very long; but who this woman sleeps with isn't my (as in, not her boyfriend/boss/co-worker) problem (her boss/company and boyfriend, certainly have a right to be concerned or upset).
The real issue here is the journalists, whom I hold to a higher standard than most other professions. If a journalist sold their integrity down the river for a piece of ass, that's the kind of ethical breach that you simply cannot overlook as a reader. We place our trust in them, to provide us untainted/influenced/biased news, and (again, if true), this would be yet another example of a journalist we're supposed to trust selling out. It's hard to believe that if they could be so easily swayed by sex, a bag of cash or some other such favor wouldn't be able to do the same.
