Let me help you out a bit. It wasn’t really that hard to find supporting information regarding the thread. A simple search provided many sources...I suppose the only question left is, will the sources be “acceptable”.
1) Benson not managing church affairs -
http://articles.latimes.com/1993-07-31/local/me-18763_1_ezra-taft-benson/2
2) Man attaining godhood -
Question: “Is this the teaching of the church today, that God the Father was once a man like we are?”
Hinckley: “I don’t know that we teach it. I don’t know that we emphasize it. I haven’t heard it discussed for a long time in public discourse. I don’t know. I don’t know all the circumstances under which that statement was made. I understand the philosophical background behind it. But I don’t know a lot about it and I don’t know that others know a lot about it.”
- Interviewing Gordon B. Hinckley, Time Magazine, Aug 4, 1997
3) Polygamy -
Hinckley interview, stating that polygamy was very restricted during it’s implementation and discontinued.

[However, D&C 132 has not been removed/deleted due to the purported “revelation” and eternal polygamy/celestial marriage is still a key component of “exaltation”.]
Thanks for stepping up to the plate and playing, but three strikes and you are out. Read carefully the text and then your responses. Your responses deal with general issues. In a case of where slander may be involved one needs to be able to go back to the actual source of the alleged slander. Not one of your links or references does that. They may or may not support the purpose of the slander (adding more “evidence” about the alleged “strangeness” of an LDS belief (Isn’t it a thrill to mock subjects that are based on faith! :)) but none of them shed light actual incidents where President Hinckley is alleged to have said something. The actual incident is important, because one of the easiest ways to produce a slanderous statement is to take something out of context.
