The Reuters IP address 192.165.213.18 has visited LGF 20 times since midnight Pacific, going to either our post about the death threat, or to the front page. Once again, this is not random activity; whoever is using this IP is watching our posts about the threat very carefully. Some of the hits are referrals from pages where there are articles about this incident containing links to LGF, such as this Ynet News article: Reuters employee issues ‘Zionist pig’ death threat. (Note: the article has been updated with some comments from me.)
Reuters Global Head of Communications Ed Williams told me that the person responsible had been “suspended” pending investigation. The fact that this IP address is still visiting our site does not necessarily mean that Reuters was not telling me the truth. The IP address could be that of a router, being used by more than one employee. However, it’s a fact that almost all the hits are going directly to our post about the threat, and this is certainly cause for suspicion.

There have been two more hits from this IP address since I wrote this entry, both referrals from the Guardian page where Inayat Bunglawala wrote:
That was not me! Methinks some Zionists are up to mischief.
