1. Hannity was being supplied stories by Gannon. No wonder Faux
won't cover Gannon. That may be the origin of the "fringe" denouncement by Hannity.

3. "Fortunately I am largely shunned by the elites. " - Jeff Gannon on FR
Could this show that the rest of the WH press core knew about him?

4. Au contraire, mom frere. The press corpse would never shun anyone
with direct access to the fearless leader. After all, they were all selling themselves for same.

7. Thank you. Interesting, to me, was how he...
...thinks of himself as the traditional objective journalist while those around him are not. I think most of these types know what they are doing; he must be a fool.

"The truth will set you free! I point you to the WashPo story from Dec 26, 2003 that says the CIA is upset with me for talking about a document they say is a forgery (when they are not denying that it exists) that details EXACTLY what the Senate Intel Committee says.

Plame got him the job and the White House didn't know they were sending him - otherwise they would have nixed it knowing that Wilson was anti-war.

The sweet taste of vindication."

And he got this info *how*? Maureen Dowd was denied a press pass and this yahoo got one. And then he has access to a CIA document?

Gee, is it THAT easy to get classified info??

10. good collection
gives some insight into this guy. He sure can't spell, almost every post has a serious typo or mispelled word. i would think a "journalist" would own a dictionary.
I liked this one, because I like the thought of making him puke:


"James Lileks: Worst Rock Song Ever? Give This a Spin

"Seasons in the Sun" I wanna barf just thinking of it!"





We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons
Out of time......

Goodbye Papa please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
Wonder how I got along.

11. Anyone saving a mirror of this before it gets scrubbed?
Seriously - a screen shot won't take care of the whole thing.
Does anyone have the capabilities to save this to their own website?
It could be used as evidence if someone gets ballsy enough to investigate this (or hell, forward it to Slaughter and Conyers).
