Jeff Gannon

A Voice of the New Media

The voice goes silent.

Because of the attention being paid to me I find it is no longer possible to effectively be a reporter for Talon News. In consideration of the welfare of me and my family I have decided to return to private life.

Thank you to all those who supported me.

Gee, I have missed MurryMom, haven't y'all?

There has been such a dearth of anti-GOP news for the past 3 months, that she had to emerge from her cellar just because the outcry from her homies was making it difficult for Jeff to actually report from the WH.

Pretty pathetic victory, IMO.

Here's hoping FNC hires Jeff.

And one has to wonder WHO sent them to FR today, just when this manufactured story breaks. Why, one would almost think it was a concerted effort.

ReadTheFinePrint also posted on 2/3 and 2/1 and last year as well. His posts hardly fit the profile of a troll. And he backed up his assertion that Gannon used a bogus Rush quote.

So I would hope you would argue his points on their merits rather than simply lumping him into a troll conspiracy.

reading some more over there .. there seems to be talk of some powerpoint thing

I read that.
Basically saying that Soros and the other rich, crazy bastards are spending foolishly.

The guy used to be in Clinton's Commerce Dept. and maybe some of that money is finding it's way to KOS.

Most of these people are sleeper trolls. Like OldBenFranklin. Signed up in 2003. Made a few posts and disappeared. Showed up again today. (I think he had one post in 2004).

Ping to prairiebreeze for link at post #104.

I am trying to slog through their tiny little print to see why Plame's name is headlined on the page (the fools evidently still think her name was "leaked" as some kind of bizarre revenge on Wilson and Plame, which has been disproven) and saw that you are cited as a suspicious poster here at FR and wanted to bring it to your attention.

Best thread comment:

Enjoy journalism from one perspective. Let them tell you what you want to hear.

They will tell you the night before an election that your candidate will win. Just don't be surprised when he loses big time the next morning.

Let your journalists tell you that elections in Iraq will be full of violence and will fail. Just don't be surprised when they are a huge success with very little violence.

Let your journalists parade fake documents as fact in an attempt to influence an election. Just don't be so surprised when they are clearly shown to be fraudulent.

Your favorite politicians will assign their lovers to positions of importance and public safety without being qualified. Your press will cover them by dismissing it as a personal problem. Your favorite politician will obstruct justice and commit perjury and your press will dismiss it as being a personal issue. Your favorite politicians will belong to white racist groups or black racist groups or anarchist groups and your press will dismiss it as being an issue of the past.

It seems really strange that they are coming out like mad on this thread. It seems organized.

I knew it!
It's a moderator conspiracy.
Murrymom is one of the clones from the Moderator secret lab and you're testing out her socializing skills before making improvements(?) in the next batch, aren't you?

I wondered just what was going o-*Blackjacked and dragged off*

You stated previously that Gannon should resign from the WH press pool because he took a quote from Rush Limbaugh.

So I've asked you whether the MSM should similarly resign because they messed up yesterday. You seem to have no problem with that.

Hypocrite.

RTFR is not what he/she claims to be. It is fine to be a liberal and admit it, but the posts on this thread, the inability to find non-liberal sources, the use of talking points, the references to things we don't know about as if we all should have such info at our fingertips and (most telling) the desire to change the subject (see the bizarre mention of gay marriage) indicate that he is hiding behind the usual shield of Libertarianism and the much older and discredited shields of McCain and TR to justify Bush/Republican bashing.

Definitely organized.

Read the book Hillary's Secret War for which Jim Robinson wrote the foreward and FR is mentioned prominently. This is the MSM's MO.

Why don't you point to one single question he has posed that you have a problem with

It was the Dems have divorced themselves with reality question that set this all off

The libs have been after him ever since

It is organized this is all too scripted. Murry Mom wants to keep her posting rights so she doesn't say much. but has others do her talking.

also ... Rove getting a 2nd job in the white house doesn't seem nearly as bad a mistake as rathergate or the john kerry "orange' photo that fox news picked up from drudge..


fire everyone I don't care... that mistake is pretty inconsequential and was corrected quickly.. so quick that I didn't know it was out there.

any slandering is unrelated to whether or not the white house should plant shills to spin the media... this is a new event in the white house..

ROFLMAO......tell it to Sidney Blumenthal!

What are you, a complete poltical novice?

Either they want to make sure that we know they "got" Jeff, or there is something else going on that they are distracting us from noticing.

I haven't forgotten the Clintonista techniques. This looks suspiciously like their MO.
