"Jeff Gannon" Apologizes.......For getting Caught! at JeffGannon.com
This is according to what Harry Shearer just read on his KCRW/NPR Radio show, in the "Apologies of the Week" part of his show.

It's on Right Now! (1:00-2:00pm EST)
It can be streamed at <http://www.kcrw.com/grid/>

Also, if you miss it, check out this page for a list of streaming stations, and when it is on. <http://www.publicradiofan.com/cgi-bin/program.pl?programid=60>:evilgrin:

7. I just went to jeffgannon.com to get the quote and here's what it said
(From the Sidebar of jeffgannon.com)

Bruised but not broken

I'm baaaaaaack! If you thought I was going to slink away - then you don't know much about me. Someone still has to battle the Left and now that I've emerged from the crucible, I'm stronger than before.:puke:

Despite all the pleas from the Left to go over to the 'dark side' and expose the 'corrupt Bush administration' simply isn't going to happen. My faith and my ideology are rock solid.:eyes:

Still, the last few weeks have been difficult for my family and my associates. To them I offer my apology and gratitude for their support.

In regard to the allegations about my personal life, I have been advised by my attorneys not to comment on any of the details pending the outcome of any possible legal action:hi: I might pursue:hi:. Therefore, I won't be discussing any of that stuff here.

(his blog is even better, I think he's actually enjoing this new attention)

3. Le Show is great
Some really insightful humor, very dry mixed in with an eclectic selection of music. You can also find it archived at his site: http://www.harryshearer.com

8. Here's Jeff's take on all the Hoopla
(from jeffgannon.com)

Fear and Loathing in the Press Room

For the last two years, the Old Media figures at the White House thought of me as a gadfly, a right-winger with an agenda, harmless, someone to be ignored. From time to time there were grumbles among some of the reporters and one or two confrontations, but there was never a serious attempt to remove me from their midst. During my tenure I developed some good friends there who welcomed the refreshing perspective:puke: I brought to the briefings and respected my courage for asking the questions that I did.

It wasn’t until I asked “The Question” that everything abruptly changed. Initially, my colleagues had no reaction to the query posed to President Bush. It wasn’t until Rush Limbaugh drew attention to it that there was any interest at all. But that was enough to get a liberal group dedicated to attacking conservatives in the media:eyes: to mobilize. It was horrified that the relentless string of hostile and a few downright disrespectful questions had been broken. My greater sin in their eyes, however was that I dared to suggest that two Senate Democratic leaders held an :puke:illogical view of the economy’s weakness and the strength of Social Security.
