It would seem in keeping with the spirit of alt.whistleblowers for the
newgroup to be performed anonymously. Does anon.penet.fi support the
control newsgroup? :-) More seriously, why doesn't everyone who knows how
and wants the group created simply forge an anonymous creation message?

Because then all the news admins who don't like anonymity (most of
them) will refuse to honor the newgroup, and the group will die.
