Democratic National Committee, Pelosi enter Gannon fray

By John Byrne | RAW STORY Editor

Saying the Democratic National Committee had not weighed in on the scandal surrounding discredited White House reporter ‘Jeff Gannon’ because the Committee was in transition, the DNC’s national spokesman broke the ice in a conversation with RAW STORY.

The office of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), who has been silent on the issue to date, also voiced their concerns.

Both the DNC and Pelosi’s office shared similar alarm over what they perceive as media manipulation. Each offered a more temperate critique than the spokeswomen for Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA) and Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) voiced earlier this week.

The DNC’s national spokesman, Jano Cabrera, said the Committee had particular concern with what they see as a deliberate strategy by the Bush Administration to manipulate the media. The office of DNC Chairman Howard Dean did not return a call for comment placed Friday.
