Nashua Advocate underscores importance of Eberle! Smoking Gun?
We repeat: Talon News was created by Bobby Eberle to create a journalistic "haven" for Jeff Gannon (James Guckert), who had already been allowed into the White House in violation of White House regulations, which require any "reporter" to be associated with a valid journalistic enterprise. This is the smoking gun. The blogosphere must turn its attention to Eberle to figure out why the Republican community is suddenly hanging him out to dry, through patently dishonest denials about knowing him.
2-18-05 Editor/Nashua Advocate


"THIS IS THE SMOKING GUN. THE BLOGOSPHERE MUST TURN ATTENTION TO EBERLE"


If this isn't a directive, I don't know what is!

1. Some details on Eberle . . .
He was at or near the pentagon on 9/11. Probably just a coincidence?

2. No such thing as bad publicity? Looks to expand his business?
How did he "SEE" the plane hit the Pentagon? Where was he? Why was he in DC? Wasn't he a former aereospace engineer?

Witnessed 9/11 attack

Eberle said his interest was further heightened when, during a trip to Washington, he witnessed American Airlines Flight 77 crash into the Pentagon on Sept. 11, 2001.

Weird, don't you think?

5. Again, are Bruce & Bobby brothers
I've seen people say they aren't related, but this article says they are. MillionsofAmericans.com also says they're brothers. I posted that here earlier.
http://www.lightupthedarkness.org/blog/default.asp?view=plink&id=397

If Bobby and Bruce are brothers, that opens up a whole other area because Bruce Eberle has been investigated for fraudulent fundraising in the past. An Animal Rights scandal and a Vietnam POW rescue scandal. And Bruce Eberle is a major fundraiser for CPAC as well. I think Talon News was intentionally set up to infiltrate the internet with right wing talking points.

6. Got a link??
I agree that the new focus should be EBERLE. Who in the White House told him to hire Gannon? McClellan? The road keeps heading back to Texas. Eberle should be dogged, questioned, researched. He's heavily involved in all this, but right now all he is getting is a peripheral mention. I just do not see how he would "just happen" to hire a prostitute to cover the White House. The lamestream media needs to pull that string....

13. Recent Eberle Interview:
"...things are tense at Talon News World HQ. Which turns out to be a completely unprepossessing suburban tract house in Pearland.

Talon is owned by GOP supporter Bobby Eberle, who also owns the GOPUSA Web site. Eberle, who says he's CEO and editor in chief of Talon News, wouldn't go into the specifics of the Gannon controversy, but did answer a few questions.

A few questions -- Talon News-style!

Q. Can you really blame a guy like Gannon for wanting to give the Bush administration respectful questions when you're in the presence of such an honorable leader?

A. Uh, I'm not sure I understand the question"
