What does that have to do with anything? The two Professors are free to speculate whatever they want. Further, the Star can print their suspicions well within the bounds of the current law. No story here my Conservative friends. Further yet, the Star printed the response from the PMO denying any link to it. Where is the false and/or misleading news again?
Now, if you were to ask me, I full heartedly agree that it is someone with links to either the PMO itself or at the very least the CPC itself. Why else would someone request that amount of information? I mean, it's not like that CPC hasn't tried to discredit others that are vocal against them. Is it?
