Thanks for the ping! I was vaguely wondering about Wilkerson the other day when one of the old VIPS guys resurfaced. Who was the one that got caught posting the fake news story, got fired over it, and then showed up at another newspaper?—do you remember who I’m talking about? I saw their name again a couple weeks ago and saved the file somewhere but now I can’t remember their name—this is gonna bug me now. . .

It was a Capital Hill Blue story posted in Japan Today [Japan something, not sure of the name]... the CHB guy a few years later had a traffic accident with a cow and was in serious condition in the hospital but I don’t know if he recovered or what.

Writer was Doug Thompson and the story went to the legit news site in Japan via the not legit leftwing loon site Truthout,org [which has a huge and interesting history of its own.]

Topic was Colin Powell as I recall. Time to reread it, I guess.

And when he was called on it IIRC he destroyed the articles so no one could analyze them.
