cableguymn, I’m seeing statements like yours on several posts.
Do you have published or broadcast citation?
I know the supposed poster of the original comment has called himslef/herself a ‘$hitposter’, but I can’t find any credible, independent confirmation that it has been ‘dismissed as a internet prank.’
Everyone is using the “I’m a sh*t poster” follow up as proof. I don’t think any of this is 100% confirmed or denyed at this point.
