Will's Russian Connection: The Final Collusion

We work very closely with the Russians. We're in weekly, sometimes daily contact with our editor (or GRU handler if one likes) in Moscow.  Maxim is asking me for article ideas right now. It's all very sinister.

The AP's Eric Tucker relies on a pair of anonymous intel sources and then uses our article Chaos in the Blue Cities to claim Inforos is spreading disinformation to elect Trump. For the record, everything in that piece is verified, factually accurate, and in other words, true.

Last spring our friend Sarah Abed, a Syrian American Christian who covers the Middle East from the exact opposite perspective as we, did a write-up on us for Inforos. After that was published we contacted Inforos' editor, introduced ourselves and said we'd be interested in writing for them.  

Forty-five articles and one GRU allegation later here we are. In all that time Maxim has rejected three of our submission and edited out, we believe, a grand total of three sentences. Otherwise our pieces go in as is. Those are our words and no one else's.

Reader(s) might be asking, given the allegations that Inforos is connected to the GRU, why stick with them? It's simple, really. Easy. They'll have us. We find the exercise intellectually rewarding and we like saying we have a column and seeing our name in print.Also, unlike those cheap bastards at Decision Games who stiffed us out of $400 for designing Meuse-Argonne: The Final Offensive, Inforos pays on time and in the full amount. At 800 words or so, it's very much worth our while. 

There's something else, though. We're an Indy author. We write, edit, and even format our books on our own. We went that rout after years of submitting to publishers and agents who weren't interested in us. Do reader(s) think we haven't submitted news/opinion pieces to more 'respectable' publications? They're not interested in us either. So screw them. We're not interested in respectability.
