This story is incredibly strange and unnerving. How can a relatively well known and respected journalist simply disappear for six months before other journalists finally notice and start asking questions? Meek isn’t even meaningfully anti-establishment although he’s pissed off the military from time to time. It looks like he’s pretty tight with the military and intelligence communities. It’s clear to all of us that we cannot trust bourgeois media, but this is really something else, especially with new conspiracy theories of Chinese and Russian public figures disappearing being generated seemingly on a weekly basis yet nobody publicly stated that they noticed this guy’s disappearance for six months.
