How many more WH/GOP/neotheocon plants are in the press corps?

It seems to me that Gannon was just the most particularly hideous tip of an ugly raw-sewage-berg.

1. The question is "which one isn't?"

I mean apart from that Arab, Helen Thomas!

[leftofthedial]

4. which ones are actively employed or planted

as opposed to cowed or legitimately more conservative?

I agree. I detect almost zero objectivity. Maybe the distinction is moot.

2. It's become a prerequisite to employment.

How many detectable lefties are there - five or six?

[gratuitous]

3. I think that's a legitimate question

After Armstrong, Maggie, and Jiffy Jeff, it should be a requirement for any conservative to preface every remark, pontification, act of punditry or whatever it is they get paid for with the disclaimer that they're toeing the administration line for free, not because they're getting a bucket full of money.

Ah, the blessed silence that would ensue!
