1. the fact that they are a news website does not make it permissible for them to write Loshon Hora or things that cause a Chillul Hashem. According to halacha, it is assur to write loshon hora in the newspapers.

2. Even if it is okay in certain circumstances to report news, the news should be reported factually and not with negative subjective comments/descriptions. This is especially true if one is writing about something that will cause a chillul Hashem and lead people to think negatively of Am Yisrael/Chareidim/Gedolim.
