I'd never heard of the guy, so having most of the article break down what kind of public personality he was I found helpful. But here's the meat and potatoes for you:
Quote:
After so long and untold amounts of pranking and harassment, Turner quit, explaining that the "free market has not supported this show."
And now we find out, for sure, that he was an FBI informant -- out there for years, whipping the crazies up into a frenzy, drawing out the really extreme ones, the true believers ready to commit violence, then turning them over to the FBI, even though they're seemingly going along with what he was promoting.

Turner's attorney admitted in court that Hal is a stoolie. Very interesting, indeed.
