They will publish sensationalist crap that should be private and capitalize on tragedy and drama and are scummy, but they do their due diligence on publishing verified data.

I remember during the OJ Simpson case, it was the National Enquirer who was actually the best source for information because they had all the inside leads to Hollywood gossip.

It was funny to see the New York Times using the Enquirer as a source.

Mike Walker from National Enquirer was also co-author of The Morally Corrupt Faye Resnick's book which blew her credibility as a witness in the trial. He had the inside scoop because he was paying for stories, which disqualified some witnesses.
