Gannon in Action? Did the Daily Show have a scoop and not Know it?

[Up2Late]

I think I might have found a video clip of Gannon in Action (Well, his voice anyway) at a * Press conference a few days ago. :bounce:

John Stewart referred to a reporter as "Chip Rightwingastien" of the "Bush Agenda Gazette." I bet this is Gannon.

At the link below, it will take you to a page on Comedy Central.com, Then click the "Video" box that has the * with the title graphic "Look Who's Talking." The clip is after the :45 second Commercial (which you can skip by hitting the "next" arrow, once it starts playing.

It's a very funny clip, but if you have limited time, Gannon is at approx. 1 min 15 seconds (1:15).

Check it out!

1. Yes, it is Gannon.

Sad that this is the closest to MSM coverage that it's gotten so far.

[aden_nak]

2. Yep, The Daily Show covered his absurdly biased question.

And ONLY The Daily Show. I didn't see it on any other news outlet, major or otherwise. In fact, other than Dubyaspeak.com, I didn't see the quote anywhere else on the internet at all.

Congratulations, America. We are now more like the spoof of ourselves than we are like the real thing.

3. WOLF BLITZER!! It's his LEAD TEASER!!

I'm SHOCKED...Wolfie, the Voice of the White House!!! The Gannon thing was the FIRST THING OUT OF HIS MOUTH!

He's doing Condi right now, so Gannon will be further down in the program...but that's pretty funny, that he used the story and the clown's picture as a hook!

5. yeehah!

ooo, "allegations are flying, eh, lesley?" Found someone else who uses a fake name to cover the news.

[Up2Late]

6. Did he credit "The Daily Show?"

Not that he would, just wondering?

Oh, Man, They are going to do the SAME story that "The Daily Show" did, on "Gay Penguins" months ago!

ROTFL

20. The Gay Pengiuin

9. Takes the focus off Leslie for a while. He hopes, anyway. nt

[Up2Late]

7. I just signed up for the Comedy Central Message Board

It's hard to find an E-mail for Jon.

[blondeatlast]

8. I remember the DS clip well. That's the guy, no doubt about it. nt

10. The saddest thing of all is that The Daily Show is perhaps the

most honest and informative "news" show in Imperial Amerika.

And it's comedy, fer Chrissakes!

But of course, in Totalitarian Nations like Imperial Amerika, only comics are allowed to speak anything close to the truth (Bushevik add-on: to avoid unseemly comparisons with Totalitarians of the past, this group only includes people with the ability to speak to 100,000 or more of their fellow citizens at one time...for the moment)

How far has America fallen since it was Free? How much further to go?

[Up2Late]

11. NPR's "All Things Considered" JUST had a story on Gannon

It was really good to, they told how he got in and played the same clip as from TDS!:bounce:

[Debi]

12. OMG...

I'M DIVORCED?:wow:

And my ex's name is reality? :wow:

How do I tell my parents (and my child?):shrug:

I (heart) Jon Stewart

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

14. Fake news is real and real news is fake. Cheers to The Daily Show! nt

[FreedomAngel82]

21. I know I'm in an upside down world

When that is the case which is sooo sad and pathetic. But thank God for people like Stewart and Olbermann.

[Contrary1]

16. I have to disagree with this statement:

"If it's in the paper, and it doesn't involve a cat eating lasagna, Bush probably hasn't read it."

Garfield is entirely too intellectual to be included on Chimp's reading list.

[Up2Late]

23. You're probably right

His level is Marmaduke, I think Heathcliff would be over his head.

Is Heathcliff still being drawn?



Have you seen "Get Fuzzy?" That's a great new strip.

[no name no slogan]

25. fsck that. W == "Family Circus"

...at least until it started getting "too political" in the 1990s...

17. Kick n/t

18. Picture of "Jeff Gannon"

<>

Can you say "Skin Head?"

[cascadiance]

19. Bush has an interesting "friend"...

[thedailyshow]

24. the first pic is of a black man that bush was hugging

for Black History Month.

[FreedomAngel82]

22. He reminds me of Kerik

Remember that? LOL.

[Califooyah Operative]

26. Countdown showed mcllellan and bush calling him by name many times. nt

[John_H]

27. MWO "scooped" the Gannon story two and a half years ago. It took

the rest of the dem establishment (without a single word from the "press" people at the DNC, natch) that long to make an issue of it.

God bless david brock. i guess it takes a former rethug to have the balls to go after the "left wing" media.

Sad.

[GetTheRightVote]

28. listened and it is funny

:kick:

[Guaranteed]

29. I was wondering if they were going to cover this again, too. nt
