GOLF ENTERTAINMENT

Read the stories on longandshortreports.com regarding Golf Entertainment Inc., Jim Bolt’s golf-course-company-turned-TV-broadcaster, which were produced in cooperation with two business journals in Northwest Arkansas.

Read an Arkansas Chronicle article that claims those who investigated Golf Entertainment were part of a massive stock-manipulation conspiracy.

Read the quarterly SEC filing of Golf Entertainment, in which Mr. Bolt accuses the Arkansas Securities Department of working in league with the stock manipulators.

Read the chat about Golf Entertainment on www.investorshub.com, which says the company “began as a good idea [but] turned out to be less than scrupulous in its execution.”

A federal lawsuit alleged that Internet posters with names such as “elvis_aint_ded,” “worldlymate” and “ragingbullwinkle” were actually Golf Entertainment principals who defamed other chat-room contributors after they questioned the company’s legitimacy.

Some of the posts in question have been deleted because they were the subject of this and other litigation, but on investorshub.com, posts still show “worldlymate”:
• Pumping up Golf Entertainment’s prospects
• Providing insider information about $5 million in funding that never occurred
• Downplaying questions about the company
• Reporting on the lawsuit in which the company alleged the stock-manipulation conspiracy.

Read Jim Bolt, calling himself vice president of operations at TV station K20CT, reviewing a $3,995 video-editing system at TVtechnology.com and rating it just as good as a $100,000-plus system, a discovery that left station officials smiling “like raccoons eating fish guts off a wire brush.”

OKLAHOMA CITY BOMBING IMAGES

Read the Tulsa World’s account of Jim Bolt’s abbreviated testimony — before the state murder trial of Terry Nichols in the Oklahoma City bombing — regarding purported images of the Murrah building as it was being destroyed.

• Second page of story (.pdf)

Read articles about the lawsuit filed by the Arkansas Chronicle and its Washington bureau chief, John Culbertson, against Oklahoma City and Fairfax County, Va., over the raid on Mr. Culbertson’s home to search for the Murrah building images.

The articles discuss Oklahoma City’s $60,000 settlement in favor of the plaintiffs and the precedents the case sets for the rights of journalists against search and seizure.

None of the articles reveal the background of the Arkansas Chronicle or its managing editor, Jim Bolt.

SHIMODA-ATLANTIC

Read the postings on allstocks.com, where someone from Bentonville, Ark., requests information about the companies and individuals involved in the sting operation against ShimodaAtlantic, then submits an article from the Arkansas Chronicle alleging that those companies and individuals engaged in a rogue government conspiracy against ShimodaAtlantic, then argues with other posters who question the authenticity of the article.

Read an alternative-health newsletter that passed along information about ShimodaAtlantic’s oleander drug, Xenavex.

Read an exchange between Tony Isaacs of Garland and “Boris Batenov” regarding the legitimacy of ShimodaAtlantic’s Xenavex drug trial. Boris Batenov [by a different spelling] is a character from the old Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons.

Read the description of ShimodaAtlantic’s proposed clinical trial on a government database site, which says the company will be seeking lung cancer victims for whom other treatments have failed but who have at least three months to live. A contact person listed for ShimodaAtlantic is Paul McLouth. Jim Bolt once told a reporter that Paul McLouth is the name of his late grandfather.
