re: #271 Anymouse

The “coincidence” they are highlighting (an actual coincidence detector is a device in neurobiology) is the alleged number of Jews in the media to supposed skewing of news articles. (Thus, the idea is to show “Jewish control of the media,” a long-standing crank right-wing conspiracy theory.)

Since the list is (was) populated by users, in addition to allegedly Jewish names, allegedly Jewish leaning organisations could be put on it (for example, Forbes Magazine was on the list). Presumably, a former member of LGF that hates the site now for some reason could have put LGF on the list, then any time it appeared on a Website or a Tweet it would appear as (((Little Green Footballs))) or (((LGF))).

The idea is to highlight the name to target it for hate mail.
