The Great Pretender - GannonGate

The Great Pretender

If the only broadcast news program you currently watch (like me) is MSNBC's Countdown with Keith Olbermann, you'd assume the MSM (Murdoch Seduced Media) had come to it's senses, by finally connecting the dots to expose the Bush White House's blatant attempts to manipulate the media into propagating their preferred 'message'. You would also assume, that the Bernie Kerik-like unraveling of salacious revelations surrounding yet another 'journalist' with a questionable partisan agenda, would be the lead story on every other evening newscast, as well.

But, if you're not familiar by now with the name 'Jeff Gannon' (which is now a proven, documented alias), maybe the fact that he was issued a White House security clearance and a seat in the press corps anyway, and is the reason why McClellan's office will not return repeated calls on the subject matter, may be of some concern to you.

On January 26, I just happened to be watching the President's press conference live, when the Talon News White House correspondent lobbed the fattest, partisan softball question to a grateful (and expecting) President. I must never again consider something so blatant would ever escape the attention of Media Matters.org, who immediately launched the opening salvo of what is now tagged as Gannongate.

'Gannon's' brazen retort to MMFA's investigation was ballsy and defiant, until his bio and any previously established personal background began disappearing, starting with his ties to his now ex-employer Talon News.
