Most likely true.

There was plenty of hate from country music fans and the country music industry, but much of the actual attack on them, getting them thrown off radio playlists, holding gatherings where they steamrolled their CD's etc was organized by right wing PACS. Do some reading about that incident. It's very interesting how an off-hand, short comment at a concert in London made it's way across the pond and into a firestorm in the US.
