Guckert\Gannon reveals a few things on his "blog"
<<SNIP>>
http://www.jeffgannon.com

They continue to make reference to me as a "fake" journalist, because I am clearly a conservative and asked questions that millions of Americans wanted to have answered. I often wrote about the professional conduct of other journalists and their news organizations.


My reporting on Tom Daschle and the Sioux Falls Argus Leader has been credited with having a profound effect on last year's senate race in South Dakota. It was my reporting the first exposed Ambassador Joe Wilson's deception about how his was chosen for the mission to Niger. I was also first to report that CBS producer Mary Mapes was the source of the phony documents at the heart of Rathergate.


<</SNIP>>

There you go folks, who needs NYT, WP, even FOX, when all we really need is TalonNews. Seriously Jeff Gannon was able to help discredit Daschle and possibly effected his narrow loss. Jeff Gannon broke the Wilson-Plame story. Jeff Gannon exposed Dan Rather and Mary Mapes for the frauds that they really are!

And who were your anonymous sources, JimmyJeff? Maybe we should ask Scotty what he feels about that?

2. I guess fake journalists don't have to learn simple grammar
When he is bloviating about himself, rather than taking dictation from Karl, he can't even write a proper sentence.

3. Nobody denies that you were the first, Jeffie.
It's just that we believe you got those scoops for reasons other than your "journalistic skills".

Your latest source is Ted Gunderson who has your real name Johnny Gosch, and that was taken from Karl Rove who's running chuzpah brouhahas in the White House.

12. 1. The repug already APOLOGIZED for his SMEARING LIES about Daschle
2. Joe Wilson's mission to Niger has NOT been "discredited". Too bad asshole doesn't bother keeping up with REALITY.

3. WHAT "phony documents"??? PROVE they're "phony", asshole, because to date NO EXPERT has said they're "phony"; they've said they CANNOT PROVE they're legit.

Yes, asshole, there IS a difference. A BIG difference. One that REAL reporters know about.

4. "MILLIONS" of Americans, huh. Are ALL rightwingnut morans like Jiggy always such pathological and egomaniacal liars?

Poor little Jiggy; no one to toot his horn, so he has to do his own tooting.

Rightwingnuts crack me up! :rofl:

14. Thanks, I am just not ready for this one to fade.
I know I am contributing to extending JimmyJeff's 15 minutes, but I am willing to give that up, if it leads to the unraveling of this story.

16. I read Gannon's blog every chance I get.
You ever notice how many times he references himself in there. I, I, I, me, me. He's conceited, arrogant and so full of himself. But I like that in a man. :-)
