Officials with the revamped ACORN office in New York -- operating as New York Communities for Change -- have fired staff, shredded reams of documents and told workers to blame disgruntled ex-employees for leaking information in an effort to explain away a FoxNews.com report last week on the group’s involvement in Occupy Wall Street protests, according to sources.

NYCC also is installing surveillance cameras and recording devices at its Brooklyn offices, removing or packing away supplies bearing the name ACORN and handing out photos of Fox News staff with a stern warning not to talk to the media, the sources said. Related Video

New questions about protest

“They’re doing serious damage control right now,” said an NYCC source.

“Now there’s no texting in the office, no phone calls in the office. They tell us to take our phone calls out into the waiting room where there’s an intercom, and then they turn on the intercom to hear our conversations. They’re installing new cameras and speakers around the building so they can hear everything.

Just like good little Soviets...

W-2’s, 1099’s, I-9’s? Maybe the feds will turn a blind eye but there are state & local taxes to be collected. Let’s see how that goes.

OCCUPY SingSing sounds good to me for these provocateurs and rascals... maybe a Reality TV show.. Stick-It and Lysol would be good sponsors.

Like a virus, it just mutated into different entities - Glenn Beck talked about that. They remain dangerous.
