His own organization? And here I thought he was an independant crusader that was trying to legitamize himself through unsubstantiated links to legit organizations.

And there's nothing a mere gamer can really do about this. All we can to is talk. Hell, this story hasn't even gotten off the 'Net yet and likely won't. It doesn't bleed, so it won't lead. This is the entire audience this will reach, unfortunately. We can't have the media follow-up on stories and do some investigative journalism or anything.
