My reporting on Dr. Steven Hayne was the top story on the local news station in Jackson last night.

Some thoughts about the report and Hayne's response at my personal blog.

    SWEEEEEEET
    Who was that masked agitator?

  3. Timothy   18 years ago

    Way to be Radley!

    Dr. Hayne says he is certified, but when we talked to him, he could not remember the name of the organization that certified him.

    Ahem....

    Radley Balko is a true patriot and an American hero.

    Thank you.

  5. Warren   18 years ago

    Oh man! DUDE You've got to watch the video of that story. They give full credit to Radley for the story and put up a head shot of him. He's got a buzz cut and his tie is loosened at the collar. He looks just like Clark Kent. Mild mannered reporter by day. But whenever injustice cries out for redress, he becomes The Agitator! Friend to the oppressed foe of the oppressors.

    THANK YOU, RADLEY!!!!!!!

  7. J sub D   18 years ago

    I don't have heroes, but there are those I admire. Radley, you're near the top of my list. Keep kickin' ass!

  8. thoreau   18 years ago

    Radley, I've gotta say, you are probably the most successful libertarian out there today. Kudos!

  9. Pi Guy   18 years ago

    Way to keep the pressure on, Radley!

  10. Bronwyn   18 years ago

    Dr. Hayne says he is certified, but when we talked to him, he could not remember the name of the organization that certified him.

    Yeah, I can understand that. I mean, I earned my PhD at some university or other... it launched my career but I can't for the life of me remember the name of the place.

    What the fuck, Hayne! Can't you even TRY?!?

    Keep kicking ass, Radley!

  11. Bronwyn   18 years ago

    Oh wait, I know. He got his certification from a cereal box and is ashamed to admit that it was a box of Trix.

  12. BakedPenguin   18 years ago

    He got his certification from a cereal box and is ashamed to admit that it was a box of Trix.

    I thought it was because he was certified online from the Universal Life Church...

  13. Kwix   18 years ago

    Fantastic work Radley. Here's to hoping they keep the pressure up and get this man out of office and (in my dream world at least) behind bars for his fraud.

  14. ChrisO   18 years ago

    Wow, good job Radley! Of course, since this Hayne character is undoubtedly one of the "good ol' boys", I'm sure nothing will happen to him.

  15. Eric the .5b   18 years ago

    Kick ass.
