"Jeff Gannon" RESIGNS

BREAKING NEWS: GOP pseudo-journalist quits!
the following from www.buzzflash.com

by John in DC - 2/9/2005 01:25:52 AM

From JeffGannon.com:

Jeff Gannon
A Voice of the New Media

The voice goes silent.

Because of the attention being paid to me I find it is no longer possible to effectively be a reporter for Talon News. In consideration of the welfare of me and my family I have decided to return to private life.

Thank you to all those who supported me.

"I'm sorry, but that hardly settles the matter. He's a family-values-loving reporter with access to the White House, revelations come up linking him with male prostitution, he suddenly quits his job, and we're to say "oh, ok." The White House has some MAJOR explaining to do." (buzzflash)

2. Ha HAHAHAHAHA!
Couldn't happen to a nastier SOB.

How long before he writes a "book" and makes the talk show circuit, possibly with a new name?

7. My heart bleeds
No wait, that's just indigestion.

There's nothing sadder than when a guy loses his job, except this time when it's funny.

8. Now that the sex scandal is breaking
Jeff thinks he can just quit and everything will be alright? I don't think so, slimeball.

BTW: Since Jeff like wearing dogtags and is certainly in good physical condition, why doesn't he ship out to Iraq? Bush certainly could use another soldier to plant some more of those freedom flags.

His 'family' better watch out because he's going down in flames!

12. He has funny little man-nipples. And his page violates AOL's TOS
Edited on Wed Feb-09-05 08:19 AM by IanDB1
His personal AOL page has links to his business and fraternity.

Technically, AOL's TOS forbids linking to ANY external web page. That way, they have the broadest possible leeway in deciding what is appropriate.

MY GUYS

Meanwhile, does anyone want to add his AOL screen name to your buddy list and accompany him to chatrooms to engage in conversation with him?

Maybe some hot man-on-man cybersex with Jeff Gannon?

13. Jeff' #1!
Maybe he and the Governor's assistant in MD can find work together!

I sense a slight shift where rethugs are a tiny bit more careful because they're no longer so positive they can act with impunity.

16. I LOVE all of these new revelations in the Pundit Payola scandal!
It's getting really fun! Now we can tie sex into the picture, and better yet, HOMOSEXUAL SEX!

This might force the story into the MSM.

17. Naw, keep him off the list of Conservative Idiots
Maybe an honorable mention, but this guy hardly deserves to be number 1. How about number 1 for "Talon News", the ersatz news organization that hired Mr. Gannon or Mr. Goodbar or whatever-in-hell he's calling himself? Or number 1 for the White House press officer that issued this guy a credential so Dinglefritz could be in the gaggle and lob a softball to Scott McLellan whenever the bullshit had piled up to Scotty's lower lip?

Tell me that one about how the corrupt Bush administration was all moral and honorable again? That one always cracks me up!

18. Aaaw... poor baby. The way he words it... it's like he's just
an innocent guy who's being picked on.

Typical right wing hypocrite.

19. Great work, people
Major kudos to Atrios, Kos and all the bloggers who worked on this story. Gannon aka Guckert is a shameless whore (apparently in more ways than one) and deserves to be treated like one.

20. I just love it!
It's so much fun to see one of these people exposed and humiliated. A gay prostitute of all things! Lets see him splain that over in freeperville. :toast: :evilgrin: :toast: :evilgrin: :toast: :evilgrin: :toast: :evilgrin: :toast: :evilgrin: :toast: :evilgrin:
