Demands in the Heritage Debate

Is it true that the editors of Hyperallergic blog received a week ago a demand from a representative of the IAPN to delete the article by Sam Hardy about their lobbyist ('Lobbyist Misleads on Islamic State Antiquities Trafficking ') published on December 8, 2014 within seven days... or else? I find it very hard to believe that a discussion of what the commentator makes of what a lobbyist writes (instead of the defamatory and ad hominem 'content' with which many supporters of irresponsible artefact collecting and knowledge theft fill their blogs these days) could provoke such a reaction.   Anyhow, seven days have passed and the IAPN representative can huff and puff - or they could actually start discussing the issues properly....
