Drew,
This link is for the Nimrod(s) that put those keywords in about the GP site:

There -is- a local site covering it, that isn’t a blog.
Interesting. In the article you linked to, Banerian said he wasn’t afraid of the alleged threat. And the fact that he made political points about the alleged threat on TV for two weeks before going to police strongly indicates that the alleged threat is not a prosecutable “true threat”.
