For Immediate Release
Franklin Center Joins Lee Stranahan, Popehat, Aaron Walker, Mandy Nagy And Others To Discuss Protection Of The Free Press
Tonight at 9:30pm EDT, The Franklin Center joins Lee Stranahan, Mandy Nagy, and last night’s SWATting victim Aaron Walker on a webinar to discuss recent attacks on bloggers and the suppression of free speech.
Convicted domestic terrorist Brett Kimberlin and his associates have repeatedly terrorized bloggers and others who highlight his story with over 100 frivolous lawsuits and 4 SWATting attacks. SWATting is a dangerous tactic that involves calling a police department to report a false crime to get a SWAT team dispatched to the victim’s house. The attacks have included bloggers Patterico, Erick Erickson, and as recently as last night, Aaron Walker.
Yesterday, Rep. Sandy Adams of Florida and 87 cosigners sent another letter to AG Eric Holder urging investigation of costly SWATting tactics. In her statement, Adams said “SWAT-ting is quickly becoming a scare tactic used against political bloggers in an effort to stifle their First Amendment rights.”
Tabitha Hale, New Media Director at the Franklin Center for Government and Public Intergrity, says “These tactics are just appalling. A free press is essential to a free society, and attempts to silence those who are telling the truth are entirely unacceptable. We are glad to have a small part in the fight to protect the First Amendment by supporting victims of these attacks. We will always err on the side of free speech.”
Information on tonight’s webinar is below. Learn what is at stake and learn how to protect yourself and your act of journalism.

What a joke this is! Lee Stranahan has been doing nothing but going around blogging against conservatives and his sidekick Mandy Nagy endorses everything he has to say by promoting the garbage. You should see what they’ve said and done to a decorated conservative Marine on Twitter! It’s convinced many these two are in it to destroy. Ms. Nagy is the ringleader of it all.
The both of these people should be exposed for the malcontent libs that they really are!
I’m disgusted with this type of propaganda! Feed it to someone else after you’ve vetted this garbage you expect the rest of us to swallow!
After years of being in the stock market I have finally concluded the game is rigged! From blatant outright thievary which takes place on a daily basis to what goes on behind the scenes, I am absolutely disgusted with the current state of our financial system. Anyone have any thoughts? Is it Rigged or have a few bad seeds hurt the industry’s reputation?
