As you will appreciate the title of the thread is usually chosen by the initial poster.
If somebody had posted a name that was not already in the public domain, it would almost certainly have been removed. In fact the poster was commenting on a news item already in the public domain and that link was provided in the post.
You may dislike the comments and feel that the poster is "pre-judging", however that is not the same as posting something legally contentious and therefore is unlikely to be assesed in the same manner.
