"Furthermore, if the caller was as smart as he portends, he would have THOUSANDS of hours of recordings and - he is a criminal after all - would either be blackmailing the subjects (in which case this audio file would NEVER have been found on the web)...or would be dead himself."

I've always derided people for announcing their investigation before they have collected all the evidence. It's an incredibly foolish move which puts a target on your back. Just think of Michael Hastings publicly telling people he was working on another expose and he ends up crashing his car.

This recording was made during the Newsome recall so it's been a few months and there has been time to investigate and collect evidence.

There are a lot of claims being made and I agree at times the conversation sounds scripted and some of the stuff is a rehash of news stories, celebrity gossip, and conspiracy theories.

Is it real? Has the reporter had enough time to investigate claims and validate evidence which is why he's now releasing this audio? Is it another piece in the puzzle or a reporter trying to make a name for himself?

I don't know the reporter or the caller so I can't substantiate any of the accusation. Without full public disclosure of evidence (if there is any) it's gossip and rumors. It will either be proven true or debunked.
