Gruber can write what he wants, but is there any evidence that Bloomberg's institutional credibility was impacted in anyway.

I see tons of articles from Bloomberg being posted on HN, where people care about that issue. Outside of this, no one cared and there are people on both camps as far as that story is concerned.

Having 'people in both camps' doesn't mean much. There are people in both camps for literally anything because opinion is cheap.

What matters is not people's opinions but evidence (or lack of it).

No one cared because not enough people looked past the initial headline. Gruber is doing a service to everyone, including honest journalists and their publications, by reminding us.

That particular story wasn't quite as fraudulent as Newsweek's exposé of a random retired Japanese-American guy as "Satoshi Nakamoto" a few years back, but it's close.
