Looking for victims of attacks from right-wing websites.

[Pab Sungenis]

I've been doing some fascinating research over the past couple weeks, and am looking to contact victims of attacks from right-wing websites.

I've already heard from a couple of people who were harassed through their workplace, and a few other interesting tales. Now I want to hear from other people who have been threatened, intimidated, or otherwise attacked by people from right-wing websites, with the intention of publishing an article or even a book in the near future discussing these types of attacks. I will promise to protect the identity of anyone responding to or interviewed by me, if you so choose. I just think it's time these thugs are exposed for what they are.

Those who are interested, or know how to get in touch with people they know who have been so targetted, please PM me. Thanks in advance.

2. Thank you. I'm on it.

And I've had some people suggest I look into Andy Stephenson. I was on DU when Andy's health problems began and I remember what happened.

Andy's going to be a big part of the piece, since it can be argued that the attack on him actually hastened his death. I'd love to interview those who knew Andy the best, and those who were involved with the fund raiser and what happened afterward; PM me if you'd like to share.

3. How about...

Threatened by a pipsqueak high schooler because he didn't like my replying-all to a mass email sent out by my then high school niece in which I corrected some quotes from Dan Quayle that had been attributed to Al Gore. He apparently didn't like my telling the truth and decided to harrass me. I won't go into too much detail now. Let me know if this works.

4. John Kerry, John Murtha and Max Cleland...

their service in the military brutally attacked and maligned for speaking out. I know it's not exactly what you're looking for, but it's still important.

5. Three famous, and well acknowledged examples.

However, I'm looking for a more "human" angle on it. To show how normal people can find themselves "swiftboated" nowadays.

6. Well, I got reamed a couple of times and my service slammed...

for not going with the repuke talking points and that was in an email. I hope you find what you're looking for. Good luck!
