WHO IS MICHAEL EDISON HAYDEN AND WHAT IS STORYFUL?
Although Bowers was a relatively unknown user on Gab, he frequently interacted with some of the site’s most prolific anti-Semites, according to research by the Southern Poverty Law Center.
One of those users was Brad Griffin, a spokesperson for the neo-Confederate hate group League of the South, who was present at 2017’s deadly white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia.
In July, Griffin (who uses the pseudonym “Hunter Wallace”) posted that he knew the identity of an anonymous blogger who was monitored far-right extremism. Griffin claimed to have the blogger’s “most recent address and tons of things about him that I haven’t posted.” Bowers responded that the address Griffin had “is not the most current for him. i can get you the most recent outside of gab.”
The July post was first flagged by Michael Hayden, an extremism researcher for the social media intelligence agency Storyful.
“Brad Griffin often expressed a desire on Gab to out a left-wing blogger who tracked the far-right,” Hayden told The Daily Beast.

General Michael Hayden has a son named Michael, but is it the same Michael of storyful?

I am beginning to think that Bowers did not even write his own posts on GAB.
