“he can’t be held accountable for her doing that.”
His overdependence on Dr. Corsi made him vulnerable to putting out misinformation.
The next day (July 18th) he went on ABC15 news and talked about an article written 10 to 15 years ago by a guy named Bennett (I suspect he meant the 1955 article by Dr. Charles Bennett).

He used that article as confirmation of what Verna Lee told Dr. Corsi about how BCs were numbered monthly.
“...an article written I believe ten, fifteen years ago by an individual last name Bennett, no relations to the Secretary of State that outlined these procedures. She almost hits it right on the head. I mean she takes it right to the tee. As far as the coding the way they were numerically numbered by batch. She verifies it.”
Only problem the article never spells out when BCs were numbered. Never even mentions the numbers. In fact Dr. Corsi wrote a WND piece that says the same Bennett article proves that BCs were numbered when they were first registered.

I suspect Zullo didn’t read Dr. Bennett’s article but went completely off what Corsi told him it said.
I recall seeing that article. I haven’t been able to find it since all this was in the presser. But I do remember reading it.
Yes, Zullo relied heavily on Corsi at first. Corsi, I got the impression, wasn’t entirely forthcoming about his SOURCES. Zullo woke up to that fact, and had to do a ton of follow up research. Most of Corsi’s stuff came from responsible bloggers who did real research, but some was less vetted than it should have been. The material from The Daily Pen is a prime example.
I expect Zullo did read whatever was available from Bennett.
My stuff is almost entirely collected by myself or close associates and can be proven to be legit. Other little bloggers do the same.
