Not above some people in Glendale, or Arizona for that matter, K....Glendale Star was sent the IRS form "anonymously". Quite coincidently after Joyce Clark ran a blog about GF..... They followed up by asking a tax attorney to evaluate what was sent to them. Then write it up as if that's the entire story, which it isn't..... And yes... note that no other publication has jumped on the story. Was the AZ Republic ever sent the same story? They have an office at Westgate. Couldn't have been that difficult to find them..... None..... But my tin foil hat is still at the cleaners.
..... As I said earlier... I think GF suspended the recall campaigns because they didn't have the resources to pull it off, and the grass roots approach wasn't happening.
Awfully careless & beyond irresponsible of them to run such a story without at least some level of verification. I have a hard time accepting that it was a hoax, a plant to discredit GF & GlendaleFirst. They'd be exposing themselves legally without verification. So sure, an anonymous source publicly but not "anonymous" to the reporter & Editor of the paper who did in fact receive verification that not only was the form genuine but that so too an investigation was or is ongoing. No, I dont know that for certain but youve gotta figure anyone with half a brain would be demanding verification before running with a story like that.
What your suggesting, hoax, deliberate fabrication aimed to discredit an individual or group, that is Tinfoil, more in the realm of traditional conspiracy theories, dark art's of subversion be it economic or political, matters of national security perhaps, sort of thing the military industrial complex employs in discrediting Ufologists..... like the case of Don Berliner. Receives "anonymously" a role of microfilm in the mail at his home back in the 90's. Has it developed, purported Top Secret US Government publication called SOM 1-01 (Special Operations Manual) published 1954 shortly after a crash & recovery in Kingman.... thats right TL....... Kingman Arizona......bout 165 miles NW of Phoenix. You know about this? Ha?
.... anyhoo, on this film, page after page, a guide, manual for Special Forces & Military Intelligence personnel pursuant to the recovery of crashed Alien craft. Highly detailed, voluminous, using the linguistic/dialectic military & bureaucratic idioms of the post war era. Very real but of course like the IRS & investigations, here with the Pentagon, NSA etc refusal to confirm or deny, "no comment" at all.
Didnt see the NY Times, CNN, MSNBC or whomever running that story. Did see the Washington Post running the Watergate story with reporters Redford & Hoffman having verified the identity of Deep Throat. They knew who he was, their Editor & the Board at the Post reassured, but the public, they/we never knew.... What we do know is that Lawyer Grant Woods & Anthony LeBlanc are both political animals not above engaging in lobbying, influencing peddling and other activities, far from a stretch to think that having hosted various members of Glendale First at GRA etc that they wouldnt hold sway over that organizations activities. Use them. Like the CIA & the Cuban Liberation Front, Lee Harvey Oswald. Patsy's. Savvy?
