I think, with all due respect, that you may have missed the
point that James was pointing out in that the keys of the
asylum appear to be being fondled lovingly by a loony.

This is not a good field to be self-policing, as the more outrageous,
but de rigeur, claims get media attention and clique acclaim, while
the more credible voices of general reason get drowned out in a general
miasma of conspiracy and supposition.  Often with 'disinformation' cited
as a general catch-all term for a modern day demon: Is there a prejudice
against just calling it lying?

I'm currently waiting for the wave to build in anticipation for Corso, and
the revelations therein.  If it's good, he'll be accepted, if it's bad,
he'll be thrown to the wolves.

I question the existence of organised efforts to cloud any of this stuff.
The field does it quite well enough on it's own.
