All Things Considerer's David Folkenflik misses the big story.

Listen to the story for yourself. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=4492778

The basic jist of the entire story is that liberal bloggers may have went to far. Mr Folkenflik never asked how Gannon got into the press core. How he got a day pass everyday for a year. What are Gannon's ties to Shrub and the White House. What does Gannon know about the Valerie Plame outing. Oh, and somehow Helen Thomas being in the press core makes it ok for gannon to be there. I encourage you to listen to the story and let NPR know what you think. I have written to the ombudsman and Mr Folkenflik to let them know I Mr Folkenflik is just a slightly better journalist than Gannon.

1. I think this is the guy who was on Countdown...

this evening w/ Keith O. Man, I was NOT impressed. Made Gannon/Guckert out to be the poor victim ("he wept during a recent interview").

5. Agreed. I get bent out of shape when he's on vacation...

and one of those other anchors fills in - it's just not the same. I checked out his blog last night - there is some SERIOUS history between he and O'Lielly that I'm not too up on, but that I am rather enjoying!

6. I will say it again "Gotta love Kieth"

4. Your headline is spot on!

He missed the story and only danced around the real meaning of the story. He didn't ask some very obvious questions, like how did you get your press credential at the White House. Who did you see? how long has Talon News been around?

Have you met George Bush or Karl Rove before you came to write for Talon News?
