Thanks to an intrepid blogger with the tag Trapdoc posting a letter to Mark Steyn, the search for the Wikipedia Libelist responsible for damaging posts to the Rush Limbaugh account has been narrowed to the IP address of a New York City law firm:
"The quotes were added by a user with the IP address of 69.64.213.146. This address has been used mostly to make changes to the article about Rush, but also Karl Rove, Sean Hannity,.. James Dobson and Sara Palin from 2005 until earlier this year.
"While others have noted this in various forums, no one seems to have made the connection that this IP address is used as a gateway by the law firm Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP (see here, for example) that all users from that IP address come from the pbwt.com domain.)"
The firm provides a wide array of legal services with a broad spectrum of politically correct causes served:
"It is one of the first major firms in New York City to elect a woman as managing partner. In addition to its Diversity Committee, a group of Patterson Belknap attorneys formed PAC -- Patterson Attorneys of Color -- to assist with the enhancement of workplace diversity and the recruitment, retention and promotion of attorneys of color. Another group, Out at Patterson, focuses on issues relevant to the firm's lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender individuals, and Women Lawyers at Patterson (WLAP) focuses on women's issues."
Considering Rush's militant political incorrectness, there may be a large number of potentially culpable attorneys and/or staffers to choose from. However, a forensic data retrieval technician should surely be able to narrow the focus and identify the likely poster. Perhaps Rush can enlist the aid of PBWT alumni, Rudy Giuliani, Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau or firm partner, Edward F. Cox, (son-in-law of former President, Richard M. Nixon) in his search for justice.
There is no question that Mr. Limbaugh has been damaged by the salacious quotes added to his Wikipedia profile and their dissemination in the PC-stream media. Hope this helps, Rush.
You know they say the only cure for a lawyer is another lawyer.....
“I hope Rush Limbaugh sues your firm. One of you slime bags is guilty of malicious libel, for posting bogus, FALSE quotes on Wiki. Your firm needs to fire the jerk or jerks involved, and cut your losses on this whole mess!”
The subnet is tied to http://www.rcnmetro.com/
Nonsense.
Failure to supervise.
Agency theory.
The entire law firm should worry now.
Someone in the DNC. Howard Dean?
Yep!
My God, Freepers are AMAZING. You may have just done what would have taken weeks or months of work by Rush’s lawyers. (And I believe at least a Rush staffer lurks here.)
That is interesting. Armando has a lot of free time on his hands. He has a thing for Rush too it seems.
Good suggestion, thanks for the link.
From Wiki>
“Later in 2007, Sanchez also became a source for reports on the Scott Thomas Beauchamp controversy, providing key information to author/blogger Michelle Malkin.[4]”
If he feeds info to Michelle Malkin, I could see why the dems might monitor. She is technically sharp and a blood hound in operation. Do not know the people who work with her, but she is right on top of things. Sharp lady.
Good Works
Examples of Patterson Belknap’s pro bono activities include:
Preparation of an amicus brief filed with the U.S. Supreme Court in the controversial enemy combatant cases.
Yep, this is top billing on the Pro Bono portion of their website!
Just more of a favored leftist tactic like hanging nooses on their own doors, or slashing the tires of fellow lefties and blaming it on conservatives. Many of these lefties are beneath the scum of the earth.
This is just brainstorming, what I posted may not mean anything yet, just a data dump to look for patterns.
Is George Soros creating a monopoly? He seems to be buying into every industry in the US. Isn’t he already a convicted felon in France? Should he be one here?
The problem with Wiki is anyone can go in and change info about anyone.
I’ve got to make some popcorn...this is going to be very interesting.
bump for later.
Here is their phone number, at the law firm.
Don’t make any threats, but be sure and tell them what scum they are:
