Yeah. There had to have been plenty to interview, but this one lives on as not being quite right. Maybe we could start or request an "AMA" (is that what they call it at reddit?) To see if Harley Shirt Guy is out there still and what he actually knows about why he said what he said and was so sure and actually acted stoked.

Not only that, what was he doing down in Wall Street wearing a T-shirt as if he was a tourist with the definitive sound bite dressed like that? I am not saying there is some "dress code", but that time of morning would have been nothing but suits or business casual. Also the "staging" of that documentary that just so happened to be being filmed on the same day at the fire station.

So why was this particular guy not wearing a suit? As in, why was this guy chosen for the setting and image? You'd think there would have been many other interviews that they could have run with. Yet this one sticks out as having set the narrative into motion.

Agreed, something definitely smells off about it.

Reddit would totally fuck you up for this line of inquiry, though for crowdsourced investigative means that was my first thought too.

All throughout the protests in Baltimore, the threads topping the front page about it were all fucking disgusting. There was a photo in the #1 position of a national guardsman, assault rifle out, sitting on a curb with a little girl. There was no critique of his presence there! All of the top voted comments were about how he WAS using proper firearm safety protocol. There are some subreddits dedicated to exposing moderator corruption and bots hijacking the voting process, and I totally believe that's what's happened to reddit. The top stories all have to support a status quo.

They do love a good internet mystery but at first whiff of a "conspiracy theory" you'd be down votes to oblivion. Like, you couldn't even use the phrase "Harley shirt guy" - that innocuous term is too connected to 9/11 investigative research and would be dissed immediately. If you posed the question as if you were looking for this mysterious hero who first told us the "truth" about 9/11, maybe then you'd get some traction.

Yeah, I wasn't going to do it anyway. I don't have a reddit account and don't plan on getting one. Just wondering if it would be possible to find this guy.

Maybe I'll give it a shot on some kind of suicide mission.

Maybe make a request for the nostalgia of the actual shirt and play clueless?

"I really want to get my hands on this historic shirt. Does anyone know where I can find it and who it was that was wearing it?" That should do it. It is a historical "document" that turned the course of history and would like to find out the history of this shirt and acquire it so that I can prove 9/11 wasn't false flag and add it to my 9/11 memorabilia.

Would love to have the shirt to add it to my museum design. And etc. . .

The person to ask would be a trained acting coach, and the question would be whether this guy was speaking in a normal voice or whether he was regurgitating something he had memorized, and not doing a very good job of it either. I may not be a Hollywood actor, but I'm pretty sure this guy was just doing a lousy job of playing a part. And I would certainly not assume that Fox News was above staging this scene themselves, either out of deference to the government or out of their own twisted world view.

first point of inquiry should be someone in fox then, who would be likely to know that sort of thing within fox?

edit Apparently the guy is fox news freelancer Mark Walsh?

From the horse's mouth:

This guy looks like "Psycho Mark Walsh," a radio personality:



Note the stadium segment halfway in. No doubt it's the same guy.

However, if you pull up an audio sample of him shortly after September 11, he sounds nothing like Harley Shirt Guy:



Also, note the fact that's he's "doing a voice" at the beginning of the actual interview. "Yo?"

Conclusion? He's either acting or, more ominously, the voice has been "dubbed in" the way voices are dubbed into TV commercials, where they need the image of one actress and the voice of another.

the cameraman will know.

someone who works in broadcast news would know how

After all of these years, I doubt whether the cameraman remembers what this guy sounded like in the original interview. An acoustic voice analysis would, however, tell us whether this guy's voice has been substituted or whether he's simply acting. No matter how good someone is at imitating voices and accents, the underlying characteristics of one's voice remain the same.

But I'm not sure it really matters. What is important is that some guy loosely associated with Fox News is already setting the terms of the official scenario shortly after the event. A serious investigation, as opposed to the phony one carried out by Warren Commission II, would have hooked up this guy to a polygraph machine and asked him where he got his explanation. But then, no one ever intended to have a real investigation. Remember, the FBI supposedly had the names of the "hijackers" from a list they were thoughtful enough to leave behind in a rental car. This whole thing stank from the word go.
