BLOG BLACKMAIL: Left Anono Blogger Won't Play Nicely In Blogwars So The OC Takes Out The Trash

A lefty anono-blogger has been accused of blackmail after he made threats in a desperate attempt to hide his identity.

Blogwars connoisseurs within the OC Investigations Unit can reveal that conservative Queensland blog patriot Iain Hall unmasked George Athanasi who blogs anonymously under the alias Ant Rogenous on the occasionally interesting leftish grods.com website.

It remains unclear whether he is:

■ George Athanasi 15 Lahich Street Preston

■ George Athanasi 3 Sunningdale Way Heatherton

Observers of Ant Rogenous suspect it's Preston. Behind a cloak of anonymity, George Athanasi describes himself in chillingly honest terms and doesn't have nice things to say about his mama:

Ant Rogenous

Melbourne, Australia

The size of the chip on Rogenous’ shoulder can be calculated by multiplying the number of years he’s walked the earth by the amount of indignity inherent in having been christened a deliciously clever pun. As far as Rogenous is concerned, his mother - the late Hettie - can roast in hell, may she rest in peace.

MUCH IN COMMON WITH OTHER LEFTY DOOF

He is said to be an associate of criminal barrister and tortured Melbourne Grammar uncool kid, Jeremy "Smear" Sear. We recall Smear also having mother issues, savagely criticising her in the lead-up to his failed marriage. Amazing how the internet can bring together people with similar interests.

Ant Rogenous writes from a stridently left-wing perspective and enjoys throwing his weight around, providing he doesn't have to be accountable for what he says, just as Sear did until outed by online patriots.

Once unmasked by Hall, George Athanasi went completely feral and in a Jeremy "Smear" Sear style dummy spit threatened to report Hall for "software privacy" unless he deleted all references to George's real identity.

While he might be a bud of Jeremy the uncool, it seems Smear didn't offer to crack open his dusty underused law texts to advise him.

UH OH! WHEN IS A THREAT BLACKMAIL?

Legal insiders tell the OC that the threat made by George Athanasi is almost certainly a breach of s.87 of the Victorian Crimes Act, which sets out the offence of blackmail and prescribes a maximum sentence of fifteen years imprisonment for offenders.

Naturally, this case was passed on to the OC to provide the matter a wider audience and to give poor old George someone to deal with who listens to threats - legal or otherwise - with the same careful attention of, say, Beethoven.

Game on.
