I just did a search on Rense regarding Art Bell, because I remembered seeing Sean David Morton's name listed as one of the issues that Jeff Rense and others have with Art Bell. Here's the article I found that I remembered:

Sean David Morton
"Art loves advertising supposed psychic Sean David Morton as having "more hits than the Mob or Barry Bonds." This strange attitude toward this long time guest continued well after I exposed Morton in a series of articles.
You may recall The Shameless Psychic And His Prophecy Of Lies, my investigative piece exposing many of Morton's claims. Morton apparently didn't like the attention. A few years after publishing the article on my website and having invited Morton several times to comment or refute what I had discovered, Morton tried to silence me with a $1,000,000 lawsuit. Morton hit one bump in the road he didn't see coming: You actually have to produce evidence in court as opposed to just talking.
Amazing that Morton, advertising himself as "one of America's greatest psychics", didn't have the precognitive ability to see that he would lose his own lawsuit and be ordered to pay my attorney $16,000 in legal fees after being challenged to provide evidence of his claims.
Morton lost his lawsuit because he couldn't present a microscopic grain of evidence to prove any of a number of his claims, including his claim of having earned a doctorate degree in Theology. One might surmise this would be easy to prove by simply providing your degree and/or copy of your doctoral thesis. Morton was given the simple task of providing proof that I had indeed made a single false claim about him. He couldn't do it.
You'd think this would raise an eyebrow with Art. Nope. Art hopped right along and came to the defense of his long time guest. Art held nothing short of a one-sided radio pep rally for Morton, never mentioning details about the lawsuit, who the lawsuit was filed against, what the specific charges were against Morton, or where listeners could see the information refuting Morton's claims.
Art told Morton, "But the accusations, I would like to deal with those." Of course, this never led into any questions focused on Morton's claims that I had clearly refuted. Instead, Art asked Morton about his hit ratio and Morton spun on not once addressing any specific information I had published nor offering any of the supposed evidence he often boasts of having to refute it.
Morton also claims to be a trained remote viewer, another of his many refuted claims. Morton charges upward of $650 per student for a three day workshop on "Spiritual Remote Viewing", which Morton now sells as his "Spiritual Survival Workshop."
After having been vindicated and having the facts on record with the courts, Jeff invited me on his program to talk about the lawsuit. He also invited Morton to come on to tell his half of the tale. Of course, Morton went on the air with Art where he knew he would be immune from offering any proof or being asked anything other than powder-puff interview questions. Morton called me a liar on the air without offering or being asked to offer any proof. I was referred to as an "individual" and tossed in with "various websites" who were "after" Morton. Art never identified the source of the information, once again leaving listeners without the other half of the story...the half with the facts on record.
Now Art advertises Morton as a "controversial psychic." Really, there's nothing controversial about anybody with the inability to prove their claims..."

Anyway, not trying to stir the pot, I'm just posting the only stuff I remember seeing about this guy. (I don't usually follow these types of people / stuff.)
