Not commenting on the probable guilt or innocence of this guy, but he may very well be the first alleged extortionist in the history of extortion that accepted a check from his mark. Doesn't that seem odd to anyone else?

Yeah, that does seem odd. Are you thinking this could be a setup for ratings?

What matters to me is the one thing literally no one is talking about: the blackmailer is a CBS newsie. Award-winning, according to some articles. Everyone is enjoying giggling at the naughtiness of it all, while here we might have a clue as to how some news items might make it into print or on the air, and how some doesn’t. If enough money gets paid, perhaps it never sees the light of day?

He may have been getting advice from ACORN staffers?
