Last post on this topic...I promise

The mainstream media bites!

Finally! Just google "Jeff Gannon" on Google News. It's not quite front page stuff, but it is damaging. Also, today on one of the cable news shows they were panning a group of protestors in Raleigh outside of Bush's Town Hall meeting. One of them was holding a big sign that said, "Who is Jeff Gannon?" Even though this is just one guy, you gotta wonder how widespread this sort of thing is with the Bush White House.

You know which media outlet you probably won't see this on? FoxNews.

Retraction: You'll see it on FoxNews, but he will be defended and given the benefit of the doubt...probably even heralded somehow.

Update: Well...I predicted it yesterday, and last night FoxNews did not disappoint. On Brit Hume's "Special Report" (I'm not sure what's special about it) they devoted about ten minutes of "commentary" to this issue. They compared this guy to Mark Twain at one point. How sad...
