In my previous post, the REUTERS authors wrote:

Lasn [Adbusters co-founder] said
Adbusters is 95 percent funded by subscribers paying for the magazine.

"George Soros's ideas are quite good, many of them.
I wish he would give Adbusters some money, we sorely need it,
she said. "He's never given us a penny."
Apparently, Lasn is a quick sex-change person, or
reporters can't write about someone and keep their gender constant.
Here is the FORBES reporter having a go at it...

The Brains Behind "Occupy Wall Street"
Meet the second most evilest man in the world (after George Soros).
Quote:
Kalle Lasn, 69, is their quasi leader. He’s the publisher and editor of Adbusters magazine.
It’s a small, non-influential critical and artsy magazine with a decent following
of around 90,000 who call themselves “culture jammers”.
Occupy Wall Street began in the conference rooms at that Vancouver mag.

I spoke with Lasn in July, right after the new edition of Adbusters hit the news stands
with the now famous image of a ballerina balancing on the Wall Street bull. (below)

Above her head read the Twitter hashtag #OccupyWallStreet.
I'm thinking Kalle Lasn looks pretty masculine.
