Alexis appears to be heavily denying it on his twitter [1] along with releasing subsequent e-mails [2][3]. Looks like this is another Wikileaks publicity stunt.

- throwssss 13y agoThen why would the mods remove it from r/worldnews? http://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/1l49n0/ http://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/1l49n0/
- corin_ 13y agoBecause it's their subreddit and they can do what they like? Maybe they didn't consider it worthy to be called "world news". Maybe they saw his denials, realised it's a false story and deleted for that reason. Or maybe they did it to protect him, which would be wrong, but doesn't mean he is "guilty" of consulting for them.
- circuiter 13y agoA thousand dollars an hour to speak with him on skype ... I wonder if he gets a lot of calls.
- hansjorg 13y agoIf I understand, he's saying that he didn't end up doing consulting for them, not denying that he talked to them. On the whole, a mildly interesting non-issue.
- kn0thing 13y agoHere's the whole collection. http://imgur.com/a/oZHt1 http://imgur.com/a/oZHt1 I met George(Stratfor founder) in the greenroom at BloombergTV, I told him how much I enjoyed his reports on Armenia while I was living there for three months and he invited me to their offices in Austin. Keep in mind this was all before the wikileaks revelation -- at the time I was just so thrilled SOMEONE in the world was writing about economic + political news in the Caucasus in a smart timely manner. As I've said elsewhere throughout the day, I did not do any business with stratfor whatsoever.
