Michael from Muckrock writes, "From Boy Scouts to movie stars, no one was safe from J. Edgar Hoover's all-watching surveillance apparatus at the FBI — or his sharp tongue. MuckRock has put together a collection of his most biting insults to serve up at Thanksgiving, in case you need to put any of the in-laws on notice."
The Washington Post — "The usual misinformation characteristic of the Wash Post."
Anonymous Slanderer [unnamed source who claimed to have some incriminating diary entries regarding Hoover's "little parties at the Knickerbocker."] — "Put up or shut up. He is a vicious and garrulous old gossip."
Boy Scouts of America [mad that the Boy Scouts weren't specifically effusive enough in their thank you note] — "Their recent resolution was so general it didn't mean anything."
