The blogger "Abu Aardvark": "A friend of Sy Hersh's told me today that one month after Hersh broke the Abu Ghraib story in the New Yorker, the IRS notified him that he was being audited.
Anyone know if this is true?
Because if it is, it would seem like a really good story of the inappropriate use of a supposedly nonpartisan governmental agency for the purpose of attacking and silencing a critic of the Bush administration.
If it can be verified by some real journalist out there, wouldn't that make a good story?"
