Spirit approaches his reporting as if he were being held to high journalistic standards.
If that is true, then he would be able to answer these questions:
1. Was that a final, official itinerary that was posted? Or a previous draft?
2. The majority of the "smoking gun" post was commentary about what happened from an unknown point of view - was it a reporter? a member of Disney's staff? a bus driver?
3. Who translated it? Again, a reporter, a member of Disney's staff? A Bus driver? Makes a huge difference.
But in any case, if you are indeed correct, why not put together an article himself and get it out there? This is 2015, not 1985. At this point, an interested party has to shift through a 950 page thread just to understand what the heck is supposedly going on (as several posters have mentioned tonight).
The people here that believe it, believe it. The people here that are skeptical, even if we accept how the narrative changed half-way through, are going to continue be skeptical. Each passing day, more people are moving from Column A to Column B. I know, I moved columns when I couldn't even get my basic questions answered and just got yelled at.
What's the endgame? If this is so completely vetted, why waste the time arguing with folks here about it? Like I said, if the "highest of the high" at the WDC are really paying attention (which, I do know the WDC pays attention to this forum, seen it in action myself), they are laughing, not shaking in their boots as we've been led to believe. Because if this is such a massive story that now includes accusations against a journalist who was specifically named and alleged kickbacks were involved, and things that escalate this to the level of something the SEC would be interested in -
this is not the way to go about getting it out there.
