They’ve been threatened. Doug Hagmann’s claims have been corroborated. There’s more that I could say but I don’t know what I’m OK to say and what I can’t. I gave links at http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2853405/posts?page=106#106 but I guess I’ll just copy that post here:
They’ve been threatened. I feel like a broken record because I keep saying this, but the claims of Doug Hagmann have been corroborated. The only reason it hasn’t broken into full view is because the story IS real and the witnesses thus far, while willing to give their evidence to PI’s and LEO’s, are still in danger if their identities are known.
The very fact that “conservatives” have not mentioned this issue - even though this report is by a sconstitutionally-assembled law-enforcement body that originally intended to put the “birther nonsense” to rest - tells you that their refusal to report it has nothing to do with the credibility or authority of either the claims or the people making them. The reason they are not reporting it is because they were told by the head of their media company (Fox and the radio companies) that if they or any of their guests discussed this issue, their career would be over and their lives and the lives of their family members were questionable.
The death of Andrew Breitbart the same day as the posse’s press conference was not lost on the media members. And Corsi’s revelation at the press conference, that the last interview Breitbart did was with Sheriff Joe just hours before Breitbart died, is not wasted on any of them either, I’d bet money.
The last link I’m giving is a newer link, which claims that the threats didn’t end with the eligibility issue but continued against Glenn Beck even AFTER he dutifully mocked “birthers”, as he continued to expose the Soros/Obama communist-Islamist connections (and as a Fox employee at least at the time the 2nd threat was made, Beck knew that the threats against the media were being made by Soros). Beck was told to stop exposing Soros because somebody on the Fox Bd of Directors was economically tied to Soros. Beck left Fox because Fox refused to provide protection to lower-level staffers who were being repeatedly threatened and harassed. Beck could protect himself and his own family but could not protect everybody and Fox refused to protect them.

I agree there have been threats etc and hardly anyone discussed the “birther” issue. Things have changed now, give it a couple days or so and then see what happens. The cat is out of the bag, Brett Baier interviewed arpaio the same day as the press conference. Limbaugh has spent 4 or 5 hours in last couple days on fluke the slut, but let’s see what happens next week. I say give it just a little more time!
The Breitbart death serves the "Obama" team on several levels:
1. It disrupts the news cycle (as did the bomb scare at Limbaugh's house) so that the media talking heads have something, anything to report other than the findings of Sheriff Joe's Cold Case Possse.
2. Gets rid of a (from their perspective) persistent threat.
3. Sends a very clear and chilling message to any journalists out there contemplating reporting on the issue of "Obama"'s background, including eligibility ramifications, with the seriousness it surely merits.
A colleague of mine and I were discussing the day before the press conference what big news event would take place that would distract from reporting on the Cold Case Posse investigation results. Bam! Right on schedule.
