Is it possible that Benji is being thrown to the wolves? That is, that his egregious self-promotion makes him a suitable sacrifice to cover up or divert our attention from some other, shadier dealings somewhere else? If so, what?
I am kind of curious that Benji, of all people, is getting outed. He has been a non-controversial editor, as far as I can determine, and the articles that are up for AfD could have easily been deleted based on their crappy reference sourcing without the "guess who this guy is?" hullabaloo.
As for a "public persona," Benji's entertainment alter egos are only known to a very small number of gay men in San Francisco. I would wager that if you asked the average hetero San Franciscan about DJ PussPuss, they would say "DJ WhoWho?" (IMG:
