He will probably convince a lot of people who have not been watching him for a long time. "Hanger Challenges PA DEP to Disclose Drinking Water Contaminants" is the title of this article.

Now one of the fracking industry’s cheerleaders, former PA DEP Secretary John Hanger, is challenging the regulatory agency to stop withholding vital information about water contamination from homeowners.

Hanger was in bed with the drillers when he was heading the DEP, and now he is having a come-to-Jesus moment.

Need further evidence? I love this one. It is rich!
