Why was Newsweek raided? Is Olivet University trying to sell you mealworms?
The International Business Times, Newsweek, Jesus II, and drop shipping all make an appearance in this scam that combines religion, e-commerce, and a shady department store.
Journalist (and Caity’s husband) Allen Arthur brings a (probably purposely) convoluted scam even the journalists reporting on it don’t fully understand. Grab your pencil, students, and start taking notes from minute 19. The story takes so many twists and turns we can barely keep it straight. And we are living for it!
Happy holidays from Caity, Sue, and Cait! We love you and special thank you to our Patreon patrons for all your support this year!
