It might be because Wikipedia mentioned the he "flirted" with nazism briefly as a teenager. I edited it to clarify.

Hindwood: we will definitely stay tuned. Ah - certified mail, it will get you every time, eh? If it takes two weeks or two months, we will be there and be sure to cover it.

Let me guess - they say he was a Nazi because he was born in Germany and because he always sold well there? Of all the things you could say about an ugly, drunken, coarse, crude, gambling man and that's what they come up with? sheesh.

Just a (small) clarification; the owner's new lawyer had asked for more time because the letter of notification (of the first hearing) wasn't sent certified mail. Oh these lawyers. In the meantime they'll be building their case of Charles Bukowski the low-life Nazi scoundrel. Stay tuned!
