[an amused spectator]

Simon Renshaw, manager for the Dixie Chicks, recently described country music fans who complained to their local radio station about the band's controversial remarks as "radical" "weasels" acting as part of a "conspiracy".

You might want to include a reference to the article in The New York Times (February 18, 2003), where our good pal Simon Renshaw again foams about a "conspiracy":

"All of my clients had their attorneys advise the labels that if they did use my clients' music on Pressplay or MusicNet, they would be in breach of contract," said Simon Renshaw, who manages the Dixie Chicks, Mary J. Blige and others. "Some artists they took off, but some they didn't. It's becoming very obvious to me and my peers that we're becoming victims of what is a huge conspiracy."

Nice opposition research!! This is not the first time that Renshaw has cried conspiracy. What happens when you cry wolf like Simon has, you lose your credibility.
