Spin Cycle: Inside The Clinton Propaganda Machine by Howard Kurtz
Is this the same Howard Kurtz giving Bulldog a pass? Don't make me laugh! And http://www.atrios.blogspot.com pointed out how Kurtz was outraged of the Dick Morris toe sucking revelation in the Clinton White House.

3. One and the same
He was shocked, shocked I tell you, by the Clinton WH team's sleazy use of spin and news management.

I guess his shock threshold has become considerably higher because a media reporter of his stature would surely see and be similarly outraged if any of that was going on now. :eyes:

7. Jeez, I can't hold this back any longer....
I can't get past the resemblance between 'Gannon' and Pee Wee Herman.
Facially, that is.

11. In the above pic, Gannon does look like Pee Wee.
But I have to admit that Gannon/Guckert, whatever, is not a bad looking guy. It's just some of his pics doesn't do him justice. His interview with Wolf, he looked like some prick with a bald head. But on his interview with Cooper, he was looking pretty hot.

12. "Jeff Gannon" looks like Pee Wee Herman on Steroids
I wonder if "Jeff" knows Jose Canseco?
