Hear Founder and former editor of Nola.com Jon Donley on why he came forward with a sworn affidavit.
Hear how, for over 2 years, he observed a cadre of about 20 user names posting abusive comments on Nola.com about any articles or people who criticized the Army Corps of Engineers.
Also joining Garland will be HJ Bosworth Jr, research director for Levees.org (pictured above).

I have known Jon personally for 6 years as a very good friend. He is a very honest and trustworthy person. I am proud to call him friend.
AFter taking four pages of speedwriting notes while listening to the “Garland’s Think Tank” on WWL-Radio, I Googled OPP (Outreach Process Partners), LLC. OPP was mentioned during the broadcast. There were three different listings right at the top, so I checked them all. Okay, so the company is “women owned”. Its home office is in Maryland. The company deals with what it calls “new media”, not “news media”. It also managed the production of something called “How’s Your News” for MTV. My overall impression still is that these gals will put a spin on anything if the price is right.
I would like to e-mail Jon some information that I can’t seem to get to the public. It concerns all that the COE did prior to and through today. I was kicked off of nola.com for comments I made about the COE, but told it was because of abusive language.
