	Actually these messages are the result of a software bug and are
not intentional acts. The individuals in question posted their messages

   this is a bug in bnews--if someone has a group that overlaps with a
   distribution domain, e.g. na, then it will get posted to every group
   that has that distribution.  Cnews fixes this.  We will be moving to it
   shortly.  That's why this kind of stuff shows up.
