The Mole At Occupy Wall Street

Oct 16, 2011
Not every civilian on the streets of lower Manhattan is there to help out with Occupy Wall Street. Some are there to help keep the police, the FBI, and private corporations keep tabs on their activities.
Gawker [ http://gawker.com/5850054/meet-the-guy-who-snitched-on-occupy-wall-street-to-the-fbi-and-nypd ] introduces Thomas Ryan, who is a member of a listserve being used to coordinate marches and protests related to the Occupy Wall Street movement, and who has been forwarding those emails to contacts at the FBI, the New York Police Department, and the conservative activist Andrew Breitbart.
Ryan's role became clear when Breitbart posted Ryan's collected communiques online:
Interestingly, it was Ryan who revealed himself as a snitch. We learned of these emails from the archive Ryan leaked yesterday in the hopes of undermining the Occupy Wall Street movement. In assembling the archive of September17discuss emails, it appears he accidentally included some of his own forwarded emails indicating he was ratting out organizers.
"I don't know, I just put everything I had into one big package," Ryan said when asked how the emails ended up in the file posted to Andrew Breitbart's blog. Some security expert.
Support seems to be growing among figures of what might be called, for lack of a better term, the establishment. Look, notes Paul Krugman, personal finance guru Suze Orman is backing the protests now [ http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2011/10/16/sunday-ows-notes/?smid=tw-NytimesKrugman&seid=auto ].
