The article from the post you just cited also pointed out that she is known to post stories, then delete them and rewrite them whenever her information turns out bogus and that she never mentions how her original articles are often wrong.
from the same post article:
There has always been lots of backlash about Finke’s vindictive style, which many have decried as bullying. Gawker calls her a “Reclusive Hollywood rage-blogger” and investigated the times she’s taken down or rewritten posts without any note that her first information was wrong. Gawker frequently writes about what it calls “her peculiar brand of journalistic thuggery.” In Polone’s Vulture column (“Apocalypse Nikki: Polone Challenges the Power of the Vengeful Finke”), he urged people to stop checking Finke’s site and sending her tips:
Part of the reason that Nikki has continued to act in such an uncivil and threatening manner is that her conduct is reinforced by those in Hollywood who, terrified, choose a path of appeasement rather than confront or ignore her. The most fascinating element of the Nikki story is that people in this industry fear her and invest power in her. She has no real power: She can’t fire anyone at the studios, and she can’t influence the audience of films or TV.
