It's exactly how it was at the end of the NJ tour but this time just throw in the internet and social media. Then it was just the printed press and the same thing was happening. They would hear things in the press and the other would believe that one said it or the other said it and in the end, no one said it.

Exactly. It's the same happening all over again. And quite frankly, I'm not so surprised some fans - let alone the casual gossipers who don't even know let alone care about the band - would fall into the trap all over again. What I would be surprised of would be if the band itself fell into it. They know perfectly well how PR and media and tabloids work and, most of all, they've experienced a similar twisted situation back in 1989 through 1991. I would think they know better. Then again, I would have never thought they'd start washing their dirty laundry in public, but, unless ALL that came out till now is false (which I highly doubt), then it's actually happening. I guess we can't take anything for granted now.
That's why to approach the whole thing like this is ideal if you want to keep your feet on the ground:

Richie was expected to show up for work
Richie didn't show up for work
Richie says all is good in his life
Jon says we need to ask Richie what's up
Anything I'm missing here?

And no, I don't think you're missing anything here. As weird as that sounds, those few facts are actually all we know in this drama.
