If Maguire is a fake then he was certainly put there to discredit the likes of GATA, KWN and Max Keiser etc. Thus if he is a fake shill, it wouldn't discredit those who promoted him IMO.
That is the kind of mindset that discredits those who favor gold as an investment. Say what you wrote to any normal person and they will think you are a lunatic. Everything is not a conspiracy. Do the banksters manipulate gold? Of course, but they do so in both directions to make a fortune. You need to get away from the conspiracy nuts, they will only cause you aggravation.
What is the goal of the web sites/people you listed? To make money off of people like you. The sooner you understand that, the sooner you will begin to recognize that their goal is to keep you hooked, not to help you. I still read a few interviews on KWN, but only the credible people like Fleckenstein, Yamada, etc. The rest of the interviewees are like used car salesmen. One time I watched Murphy debate Christianson and Murphy sounded like a hysterical idiot. Christianson wiped the floor with Murphy. Is Kaiser still pimping his silver rounds? You can waste a lot of time listening to those people and in the end you will be less informed than when you started. Buy pms for protection from fiat currency devaluation period. The rest is noise that will waste your time and energy.
