How true is it that Prescott Bush was involved in an attempt to overthrow the Roosevelt government and install a fascist regime?

Wikipedia, particularly the article concerning the Business Plot, has been scrubbed of all mention of Prescott Bush's (Yes, GWB's grandfather) involvement in the Business Plot.

I was wondering if it was removed because it is not true, or if the Bush family has paid someone to scrub it, or if all of it is fringe conspiracy nonsense that conspiracy theorist embellished with their own rewritten version of history.

BBC Radio-4 did a great report on it on 2007/07/23 but I can't find the recording.

I can't speak to the speculation that the Bush family or its proxy is editing wikipedia to retcon their involvement however.
