Irresponsible
This is an extremely irresponsible decision and reeks of greed. In fact, the press release itself says that it is a lucrative deal for the website. It can't be any clearer than that.
A responsible website would wait until the external investigation was completed, digest the findings, wait until AP made changes to their business practices and software in response to the findings, then institue a probation period, and only after a successful probation period consider reinstating an endorsement.
A greedy website takes the cash without even waiting to find out the full story, is satisfied with some vague "rogue consultant" explanation, and not bother to even ask what changes have been implemented to prevent such occurences in the future.
