It is getting better. Check this out [Truthout trying to hide stealing a fraudulent article]

[William McKinley]

I am having a back and forth with Japan Today regarding their publishing of an article which appeared in Capitol Hill Blue that has subsequently been exposed to be false.

Japan Today did not get the article from Capitol Hill Blue though. They got it from Truthout.org, a leftist propaganda outfit.

I wanted to see if Truthout.org even had the story up on their site. I went to their main page, Truthout.org and checked. Nothing. I noticed a search box up at the top. So I took a phrase from the original article, sought significant quantities and hit search.

Bingo.

Here is what the resulting page looked like:

Notice that the third result is a match for Doug Thompson's article.

But wait, there's more.

I click on it- and what do I find? It now goes to a completely different article, from the Washington Post. In other words, they had it up, and they took it down to make it look like they didn't have it.

Unfortunately for them, their search engine's cache still has it. At least for the time being. Others should replicate what I have done here for verification. I am sure they will be 'fixing' this slip up hastily.

Yep, exactly why Truthout wanted to make sure it got published in a 'real' paper.

Anyway, might as well plug my blog. It has links to all of these threads, and a few other stories I have been following are 1) Liberia, 2) The Lawrence decision, 3) Charlie Chan, 4) ALA, and 5) conservatism in general.

Who is William Rivers Pitt? He is a leftist propagandist. He has also written a book with Scott Ritter (the former weapons inspector who was vocal in opposing the Iraq war, and got busted for trying to meet up with underage girls at Burger King).

What else did Registered find?
