Jeff Gannon’s Book Takes Aim At Liberal Media Bias
‘The Great Media War’ Exposes Politically-Connected Reporters

WASHINGTON, Sept. 4 /Standard Newswire/ -- Former White House correspondent Jeff Gannon ‘names names’ in his behind the scenes look at the White House Press Corps and the Bush administration. For two years Gannon reported on some of the most important news events from ‘behind enemy lines’. He provides never before published details of stories from the invasion of Iraq through the 2004 election and the beginning of the second term of President George W. Bush.

Valerie Plame Affair: “I was the only White House reporter to get the CIA ‘leak’ story right and the first journalist to directly confront Joe Wilson with evidence of his lies about his mission to Niger.”

Sen. Tom Daschle’s historic loss: “My exposé on Daschle’s ‘Sopranos-style’ political machine that used the local media to destroy opponents and stifle unfavorable news stories about the Democratic leader affected the outcome of the most watched race of 2004.”

Rathergate: “I was the first journalist to report that Mary Mapes was behind the forged documents Dan Rather used to try to defeat President Bush and the near-meltdown of CBS News’ Washington bureau.”

Gannon made headlines in January 2005, asking President Bush a question that liberal activists thought unfairly criticized Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Harry Reid. When efforts to professionally discredit Gannon failed, liberal activists waged an unprecedented campaign that brought threats of violence against him and his family and invasions of his privacy to create a scandal that had Washington abuzz for months.

Gannon hits back at his critics:

DailyKos – “stalkers and hatemongers”

Media Matters for America – “smear artists and character assassins”

Angry Gay Left – “vicious and conflicted hypocrites”

Democrats – “With the investigation of a journalist and a pledge to revive the so-called Fairness Doctrine, Rep. John Conyers and Rep. Louise Slaughter pose the greatest threat to the free press in America since Congress passed the Sedition Act over 200 years ago.”

1. Jeff Gannon doth project too much.
And this is more evidence that this election season's Republican demon will be the Angry Gay Left with all their demands for equal rights and the evil outing of all the poor closeted GOP lawmakers.

4. Wow, jeff apparently ain't getting any
How can Media Matters assassinate the characters of conservatives who don't have any character? Gay left hypocrites? That's extremely rich. So jeff ya gotta be in the closet, attend church regularly and suck cock while your wife is out of town to not be a hypocrite? Oh great, another "conservative" on record being deathly afraid of the fairness doctrine. Gosh, jeffs little pee-pee would shrivel way up if he had to swear under oath to tell the truth.

Hey jeff, chill. Why don't you go hang out at the back gate of a Marine Base at secure time.

22. According to freudian theory, devices such as projection are used
unconsciously to PREVENT mental collapse.

29. Borderline personality......
I thought "borderline personality" meant that the person was close to having an acceptable personality, but it actually
means the person is nearly psychotic.

28. This idiot is beyond stupid
He's one of those wastes of oxygen that doesn't just practice hypocrisy and ignorance, he takes it to a whole new level and actually makes it a twisted form of art.

Gannon, you humiliated yourself and our nation with all your antics. Do everybody a big favor now and retire from public life. You're an embarrassment. The fact that you don't realize just how big of a joke you are says more about you than anything your "stalkers" ever could.

32. If only right-wingers could look in the mirror
"stalkers and hatemongers”

“smear artists and character assassins”

“vicious and conflicted hypocrites”


They'd finally see someone worthy of all the hate they have.

Edited on Tue Sep-04-07 12:11 PM by Marr
the fact that we collectively punked his stupid ass by putting his real identity out there, rather than just rolling over and passively accepting all this crap as he thought liberals were supposed to do.

News flash, asshole-- you're a gay male prostitute who lied about military service, so he could spout blatant political propaganda as "news". You're several rungs below any other media figure you could point at, and you've got no business calling anyone a hypocrite.
