I only took it seriously because I heard Brian Jones on his radio segment on The Ticket in Dallas earlier in the week saying many of the exact same things quoted in that article. I listened to it live and, although I don't remember him specifically saying race was what was driving the boosters meddling, he did say many of the exact same things quoted in that article. Almost verbatim on a lot of it, as if he's on some kind of campaign. And he definitely insinuated the race thing by mentioning some of the emails he'd seen associated with The Eyes' controversy.
Anyway, that article might be from a shit source or written by a shit "journalist" but, assuming they aren't completely misquoting what Jones said, the source of the article and inaccuracy of other supporting "facts," doesn't change what Jones said.
I think the bullshit part is that if Brian Jones is going to go around talking publicly on air about the problem being meddling, over-stepping, racist boosters, then he needs to come out with it and elaborate on what's leading to those claims, instead of backing out of the cul de sac like this...
