It looks like Jeff Gannon is back

[FreedomAngel82]

I was watching the two video's from Canofun and it's Jeff Gannon. You can see him at the end of the video of the Gonzalez protestor video. He tries to hide himself from the camera but it's him. Than when he's questioning Durbin when Durbin asks him where he's from he at first says "Talon N--" and than corrects himself and says "Pajama Media." What in the world is "Pajama Media"?? How do they get press passes? And did the Jenny girl of Randi Rhodes' show ever get her White House press pass? I remember when all this first started they were going to try to get her a pass but I never heard if she got one.

1. Pajama Media is from Banana Republic :)

[EarlG]

2. Pajama Media?

:rofl:

I'm guessing that would be related to this:

12. Interesting

That's what he said when Durbin asked him. Very interesting. Maybe more should be looked into it? Or maybe I'm reading too much? :shrug: What was Gannon's Freeper name? They mention two: Buckhead and TankerKC. :shrug:

[laheina]

23. That reminds me of

those fake police cars with the lights on top, and when you get close to them you see that they say "security patrol" on the side. Kind of pathetic.

[YOY]

3. Pajama media?

Jeez Guckert/Gannon/Whatever you don't make it very difficult, do you?

I bet he only showed up because he heard that Boehner might be there...he's a hard man to find! (Sorry gay DUers)...

[FreedomAngel82]

9. LOL!

And Jack too!

[Javaman]

4. I think I'm going to start my own media outlet and call it...

Lying Ass Press and see if I can get a press pass. It would be a priceless moment when scotty issue calls on me and I say, I'm Will from Lying Ass Press.

34. Mumble mumble, Mr. Goodhead gave me a pass also.

[Sadie5]

5. I'd like to see this

Got a link?

[FreedomAngel82]

14. Go to

http://www.canofun.com/blog and go to the video section. Look for Gonzalez protestor and Durbin being questioned.

[SammyBlue]

6. Pajama Media? Is he starting a new. hot M4M Military Stud site? eom

[Maddy McCall]

7. Can you post the links?

[htuttle]

8. It's only fitting to have an actual whore in the press corps

...In much the same way that it would be fitting to elect an actual sheep to congress nowdays.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

10. Maybe they have a bunch of pillow fights instead of doing actual work. n/t

[hlthe2b]

26. Go back througth James Wolcott's archives on the subject...

you'll learn plenty... (and Wolcott's razor sharp wit is worth the read) www.jameswolcott.com

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

46. Will do. Thanks. n/t

13. Pajama media

http://pajamasmedia.com/

[DBoon]

22. they called themselves "open source media" briefly

then got beat on by the open source community for mis-using the name.

[BlueEyedSon]

15. Didn't he do SOMETHING illegal???

[me b zola]

35. Pajama parties at the White House

At least that is how it appeared in the log books.

[BlueEyedSon]

37. That's legal, if unseemly. I was referring to his online solicitation.

[hlthe2b]

16. Someone needs to let John Aravosis and James Wolcott

(Americablog.com and jameswolcott.com). The first was instrumental in "exposing" (pardon the pun) Gannon-Guckert and Wolcott has been like starving fleas on a fat dog when it comes to exposing pajamas media.


Ohh, boy...:popcorn:

[FreedomAngel82]

17. I agree

Anyone have any direct contact to them?

[hlthe2b]

29. there may be email addies on their sites... I can't email them from

work address (big trouble for political related activities on work time). Hopefully someone can or maybe I can this evening. It will surely make their collective days!

[Warpy]

18. Well, it's obvious he's got his client list stashed away somewhere

probably locked in the safe at a lawyer's office. I can't imagine the sanctimonious GOP wanting anything to do with a gay hooker unless their own names were in his little black book.

The man can't even write his own stuff, ferkrissakes.

[Mnemosyne]

19. Really...

:popcorn:

[Stephanie]

20. He didn't say Talon, he said Powerline

I couldn't see him but I heard him say Powerline, then Pajama Media, then when Durbin walked away and said "I don't know your organization" the guy said something like "ask Dan Rather." What an ass.

[FreedomAngel82]

24. He almost said it

I barely caught it but it's in the beginning right after Durbin asks him who he's with.

[Scurrilous]

21. Pajamasmedia...

...the brainchild of author and blogger Roger Simon and his poodle Charles Johnson (of littlegreenfootballs fame).

Dennis the Peasant blogs extensively about this trainwreck:

The fun begins in the November archives.

[FreedomAngel82]

25. Thanks

So he's now with them. Interesting. I'll check it out.

[FreedomAngel82]

27. Something that always gets me

is how they say we're "the enemy." :eyes:

[madrchsod]

33. not little green footballs!

my god even the stormfront troopers can`t stand this site--they think the footballers are intellectually challenged!!

[Scurrilous]

47. Yep...

...that littlegreenfootballs.

From lgf watch (Thursday, February 02, 2006)

http://lgfwatch.blogspot.com/

'Johnson has not returned calls'

"Doesn’t the presence of Footballs make it harder to attract ads to Pajamas Media? When asked that question, the otherwise loquacious Simon pulls up short. “I have no comment on that. You should ask Charles,” he said. Johnson has not returned phone calls.

LA Magazine on the difficulties of snagging advertisers while you're publishing hate speech."


I tried posting the link to LA Magazine but it didn't work. If you go to lgf watch and scroll down to Thursdays articles you'll find a working link. The article is pretty good. Describes how the racists at littlegreenfootballs are scaring away advertisers for pajamasmedia.

[Ksec]

28. Thats a good thing imo

The more "exposure" the better. If hes out of sight its not as easy to use him as an example of what a true red repub lives like.

[gimama]

30. he popped up last week:"look forward to testifying"?!

in the Plame-libby case. I know I read it here on the DU,seemed he missed NOT being in the spotlight. I say let's ck this out..porn-stars in Senate Hearings & Press Briefings..hmm, sounds bad,I'm thinkin'. ;}

[FreedomAngel82]

40. I remember that

[Cleita]

31. Maybe if her brother is a gay male hooker, he could get a pass!

:rofl:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

32. I didn't hear him say his name... and I didn't see him on screen, since he

was offscreen asking the question... How do you know it's him?

[FreedomAngel82]

39. There is two things

1) Another video. The part where Gonzalez gets called a fascists. Go to http://www.canofun.com/blog and look for the video. At the end you can see him and he's trying to hide his face but after he kinda is ducking behind the chair he looks at the camera.

2) When Durbin asks him who he is with he almost says "Talon" and than quickly says "Pajama Media." I barely caught him saying that and that's when I knew. Than when Durbin left he said he wasn't familiar with the publication and he (Gannon) said "Dan Rather does."

[Emit]

43. I saw the bald-headed guy sitting next to the guy with the t-shirt

on that said "...arrest Bush", but that wasn't Gannon. Didn't look like Gannon to me. And in the video of Durbin, the questioner never states his name and we can't see him on video. How do we know if this is Gannon?

[laheina]

36. Congress turned him down for a press pass

I wonder if the White House managed to get him in anyway?

[FreedomAngel82]

41. Bingo

He has high connections to someone.

[Synnical]

38. Not Gannon - Paul Mirengoff?

http://cadillactight.com/?p=142

I’m not sure how the DU’ers got Paul Mirengoff confused with Jeff Gannon, though. Gannon was present at today’s hearings (you could see him clearly in the C-SPAN segment with the protestor), but he’s almost certainly reporting for his own blog, not for PJ Media.

[FreedomAngel82]

42. Do you have a picture of him?

[Synnical]

44. Sure

But, he's off camera. Listen to the video again, he's saying Power Line, Not Talon.

Paul Mirengoff

Paul Mirengoff (born April 17, 1949) is an American lawyer and a blogger at the Power Line weblog. He graduated from Dartmouth College in 1971 and from Stanford Law School in 1974.

Mirengoff is currently practising law in Washington D.C. For several years, he worked for the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. He started writing articles for publications including the Washington Post, the Weekly Standard and Front Page.

He became a fellow of the Claremont Institute, a conservative institute. Mirengoff formed Power Line, a conservative blog in May 2002 with John Hinderaker and Scott W. Johnson who were also fellows of the Claremont Institute. He originally used his nickname Deacon in posting to the blog. The blog gradually built a strong following amongst conservative Americans winning praise from Rich Lowry, the editor of National Review, Mark Steyn and Michelle Malkin.

Power Line rose to national prominence during the controversy surrounding a CBS news story on President George W. Bush's stint in the Texas National Guard. Time Magazine awarded Power Line its award of Blog of the Year for 2004 for its work in uncovering the scandal.

45. I don't even think that's Gannon in the video clip of

the protestor. Sure, the guy in the audience on that protestor/Gonzales video clip is bald and all, but it doesn't look like Gannon to me.
