1. Watch the link...

...it's Ari as Press Sec and there's Gannon. Also note that several of the "journalists" in the press pool turn and stare at Gannon incredulously after he's asked his "question". You can also see him behind one of the reporters, making faces and darting his eyes, as the reporter is asking his question of Ari. Considering it's dated, I'd say there's no "supposedly" there.

Struck the word supposedly.

5. Ok...this is just getting fucking weird!

If this is prior to the existence of "Talon News", then what does his "Press Pass" say? Now this has to break into MSM. The WH has been caught in a lie involving not just a propaganda shill, but a known prostitute. And, yes, the fact that he is a prostitute makes a difference. I would say that if a former prostitute had gone on to become a legitimate journalist for a legitimate news organization, then the fact of his/her former job would be immaterial; but when the person is a current prostitute and is neither a journalist nor associated with a legitimate news organization, then THAT is news-worthy.

This has got to be broken in the foreign press, big, before the US propaganda mill will even pick it up...

6. Damn Az

That's good. That's really good. I've never recommended a thread for Greatest before, but of all the Gannon stories, this deserves it.

7. Well, this blows simple Scottie's lie wide open...

Scottie said:

"My understanding was, when he started coming to the White House about two years ago, the staff asked to see that it -- that he represented a news organization that published regularly. And they showed that, so he was cleared and has been cleared ever since based on that time."

What news organization was 'Gannon' representing in Feb 03?

9. Excellent find...
