It appears that Bobbie Short is again altering other writers articles so to push her own misguided agendas. It wasn't that long ago that the Sasquatch Community discovered that Bobbie Short's site had been inserting images into submitted articles to her site so to push her flawed claims that the pilot who accompanied Green and Dahinden to California in 1967 was instead 'Bob Titmus', which in turn fit her idea that a Massacre of Sasquatch in Bluff Creek had occured at the time Patterson shot his movie. Now it has been discovered that Short may be responsible for the altering of text concerning an article writen by a Scott Hewitt for the Columbian. The original article is shown below followed by the same article seen on Short's site. The altered text has been highlighted and appears to have been added to the publication in an effort to slander Larry Lund. Short doesn't have the article attributed to anyone. I will leave it to each reader to decide whether Short has committed a form of plagiarism and/or unethical reporting practices. For myself, I must wonder how much of the information found on Short's site can be deemed untainted if this type of unethical behavior has become an acceptable practice there. How ironic when the following is written at the bottom of the page the altered article appears on ... " Portions of this website are reprinted and sometimes edited to fit the standards of this website under the Fair Use Doctrine of International Copyright Law as educational material without benefit of financial gain. " www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/17/107.html The actual article  The same article with added remarks, minue a partial paragraph  |

I find this utterly despicable! <insert a lot of spittle here>
I wonder if Mr. Hewitt knows about his work being perverted to fit some wacko's idea of right ... Amazing to what depths some will go to in order to have everything match their belief system ...
Thanks for posting this up!!

"Hi, You are right, those items in red were definitely not part of my reporting and writing. Weird." |

The sorts of things now found on Bigfoot encounters are insane attacks on people who have done nothing wrong. Larry Lund is a really good guy. I know him well. I cannot imagine Rene ever saying anything of the sort about Larry. Rene and he got on very well. It seems
The Bob Titmus crap on her web site is disgusting and now she's making up crap about Larry Lund. What the heck has happened to this woman who I once had respect for? Had the dreaded "bigfoot" disease claimed another victim who tosses common sense out and then drift into areas of unreality? That site is now on my discarded list and I hope anyone with any decency stay away from character assassination central as I now call it.

When I first started searching for Sasquatch online, Bigfoot Encounters was one of the websites I had on my "go to" list. But when Bobby bought shares in the whole Massacre at Bluff Creek farce, I washed my hands of her and her website. I really don't trust anything from there anymore, there has been far too much covert editing.

Wow, excellent sleuthing Bill! I cannot believe she would attempt this kind off blatant deception, but then again, if it weren't for your discovery, she would have gotten away with it.

I cannot believe she would attempt this kind off blatant deception. I am afraid that Bobbie Short has pulled such acts of deception in the past and I can state that she has lied to me personally when it came to her misguided support of MK's idiotic massacre theory. Short has proven herself to be someone who will blatantly lie so to appear correct. |

It really is too bad to. Bobbie Short was a very reliable source of information & a very respected researcher, it still boggles the mind as to why she would choose to go down the path she is currently on. If she has at least admitted to what she had done she may have saved some face, but with all of this spiteful editing that has been done she is losing all but her most blindly loyal followers.
Having a bag of yes men/women may make her feel good, but it is not doing her reputation (or what's left of it) any good.
I never thought I would say it, but I can see her going down the same road as Erik Beckjord.

it still boggles the mind as to why she would choose to go down the path she is currently on. I read two emails from Bobbie to John Green whereas she sent John one email speaking very normal, while the other sent immediately afterwards she was on a psychotic scary rant. It was a typical Jekyll and Hyde syndrome. Maybe what has happened to her is like what happen to Van Gogh just before he thought it would be a good idea to cut off his ear and mail it to his girlfriend. (sigh) |

bigfootbooksblog.blogspot.ca/2012/07/b-s-of-bigfoot-encounters.htmlInteresting exchange at the above blog link. Dealing with those who support Short's antics come across as cult-like minded individuals when you read their responses. I just shake my head when I hear them ignore her manipulating others writings so to smear others as they criticize the messengers for pointing out her wrong doings. One person even uses the sighting reports found on her site as out-weighing her manipulating articles. My question to that is ... How does one know that the reports have not been altered as well? This is the problem with hoaxing for a known hoaxer could actually have a legitimate sighting one day, but how will anyone know what to believe anymore if that person has a history of deception.

Well, that's just it Bill...if she is willing to rewrite a previously published article to suit her agenda, I wouldn't be surprised if she made up sighting reports or elaborated the witness statements to drum up attention. Clearly this is another case of somebody not getting enough love from mommy and thriving on the attention and adoration of the bigfoot community. Let's just hope she and brisson never get their fool heads together. lol

Short is a staunch defender of Brisson and has stuff about him posted on her site. I tried to tell her he is a hoaxer, but she refused to accept the facts. Completely unacceptable behaviour.
