I've seen a couple of posts that the image was a Photoshop/hoax by the offending trolls. They incorporated it into what they claimed was from the live feed then edited from the show. But I have no real information to judge the image or the claim it was faked.

Even if it was a mistake made, caught and never put in the show Leo still has a problem. The live feed gives the trolls ammunition to capture mistakes, amplify them, make sure they are in the worst light and here we are discussing it.

So I can see why this was the straw that broke the camels back .. and now we loose what was a great source of entertainment and community.

I stand by "this is why we can't have nice things."

I've seen the actual video of it and I sort of doubt it was fake.

But even then you still make a great point and he likely just had enough of it too. That being said, when you get into live streaming you sort of expose yourself to things as a public figure and have to be ready for some of it to come back.
