>On Friday, the news organization revealed that Chris Ziegler, a founding member of The Verge, had been working for Apple since July, but didn't tell anyone about his dual employment.
then:
>During Ziegler's time at The Verge, he wrote primarily about cutting-edge car technology, including rumors about the Apple Car. His last post on the site overall is dated July 1: http://www.theverge.com/users/chrisziegler/posts*
So, he started working for Apple on July, and he didn't wrote articles on Apple tech anyway before, but about cars, the last of which was published before he started with Apple.
Furthermore, as they say "Chris did not attempt to steer any coverage towards or away from Apple, and any particular decisions he helped make had the same outcomes they would have had absent his involvement," the editor's note reads.".
Not only that, but he just disappeared from the blog, to the point that the people there were "in the dark and concerned for Chris".
For actual shills we probably need to look elsewhere...
