…and for those of you who remember our report back in February when we noticed “a $20,000 disbursement to Green Faucet LLC, which is an investment firm owned by Chip Hanlon and also the parent company of his Red County web sites.” The payment was made about a week after Hanlon fired Aaron Park, the erstwhile, paid sock puppet for Meg rival Steve Poizner.
Hanlon told us the $20k was nothing more than payment for advertising on his web sites, but we found another Red County advertiser who was paying about $300 a month for the same size ad, suggesting the subsidy was something more than it was supposed to appear.
No shit. Since then, Meg has paid Hanlon’s Green Faucet $15,000 a month for a total now of $110,000! Which means everything you read on Red County and from Hanlon is nothing more than sock puppetry of the first water.
A cursory glance through our email in-basket finds at least 10 times when eMeg’s flacks have sent out missives to reporters telling them to be sure to catch a piece by Hanlon or Red County. As if it were some sort of commentary by a neutral party. NOT!
Vern commentary: LOL. LMAO. ROTLMAO.
I love the way that they have turned Red County into a Green Faucet limited liability corporation and guys like Cunningham, Scott Baugh, and the Hansen family make their living sucking on the government teat.
But they get their deals fair and square, as no-bid contracts or patronage deals as consultants, which they describe as the “private sector”.
Time to run these money grubbers out of town.
The silence at Red County has been deafening over the past few weeks.
As their boys on KFI beat the shit out of her, Matt and Chip are silent. Meanwhile, those “channelling the right wing noise machine” are silient on on the left’s canidate.
RED COUNTY IS A PAID WEBSITE BY MEG HITMAN.
Plain and simple.
Silent?

It’s nice to see OJ ended the blog war though!
Funny how this is reported here……….
What happened to “Challenging The Right Wing Noise Machine”?
Sounds like a scam to me.
And if Meg wins she is going to hire a slew of Red County hacks to run our State Agencies. No bueno…
Politicians manipulating the media? Imagine that —-
