this is limp dick energy. If asking questions is an attack then you're probably a piece of shit doing bad things.

no it isn't. what answer to that question has any value to me as a reader?

Think about the answer you would actually get. They would dismiss the question or give some sort of nonsense answer. It's a rhetorical question, and the only thing that it serves to do is criticize the person being asked. That's not what reporters are there to do. If the answer would actually give some useful information to the reader, then it's worth asking.
