FT2: You must be a part of Wikipedia's propaganda ministry. I offer you facts about one striking instance in which journalist Alan Cabal has been maligned over and over again. Who knows how many other
Wikipedia articles are being treated in such a way, and only if people
come forward will we get a good idea.

This is (when stripped down) basically a "straw man" post. It uses quotes by
others saying "A"as a rhetoric device in a question where the issue isn't
"A" at all, and in effect, conflates the two to try and make its point. It
then presents its point as made when in fact it hasn't made it at all, nor
even contains any attempt to do so. It's either sloppy logic or a rhetoric
device. Either way it has no place in honest communication, except as a
mistake to be retracted when spotted.
