askjohnlott.org, enough already

Jeff Johnson of CNSNews.com has a fourth story about the Lott parody site askjohnlott.org. Johnson discusses the evidence that Jonah Peretti is involved with the site and quotes Lott:

"I don't see how one can get around that [Peretti] either is running it, or he knows in detail exactly what's happening with the website"

... Lott notes that, while the creator of the site now claims to have "regained control" of it from the hacker, the e-mail address the hacker posted on the site is still active and auto-replying to messages from the Contagiousmedia.org mail server.

"It just makes it fairly suspicious to me that this person or group who is running AskJohnLott.org hacked their own site," he charged.

While I suppose that is possible, the email address that the site cracker left was saved@askjohnlott.org, which the site owner would have regained control of when they regained control of the site.
