its been this way for long time
lets not forget Fide was under the control of a murderer for many years,
Kirsan Ilyumzhinov the president of the so-called Republic of Kalmykia.

basically the organized professional  chess world has been spinning out of
control since Campomones (who had been found guitly of fraud by the Phillipine
Govt)

Kasaprov didnt help matters when he broke away from Fide to share the match
money with Short

this is just the same ol..same ol
