I have provided a signed version of the SHA1 hash of the file:
http://www.bitaddress.org/ninja_bitaddress.org.txt - PGP Public Key
http://www.bitaddress.org/pgpsignedmsg.txt - Signed Message
Key fingerprint = 527B 5C82 B1F6 B2DB 72A0 ECBF 8749 7B91 6397 4F5A

Easiest for me (using KGpg): Import the public key, copy the whole message text to the clipboard, select "Sign/Verify Clipboard":
