From BNA:
'Inferential' Intervention Trend
[Marcus Owen's] firm has seen the emergence of differing interpretations of the facts-and-circumstances standard that IRS applies to all political activity referrals, he said. Some offices have a more
liberal interpretation where only allegations of explicit statements of campaign intervention lead to investigations, while other offices are more willing to look at allegations of implicit or indirect
campaign intervention, he said.
What he called a determination of "inferential" intervention is also emerging from IRS. This he described as "inferences derived from discussions of candidate's positions on an issue ... but somewhere else in the organization, another Web site or something off a Web site could carry with it a flavor of the organization's position on the same issue, and IRS could conflate those two and come to the conclusion that there was inferential intervention."
