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.

I don't know If I believe that..

Frankly, after reading your posts, I don't give one damn whether you believe it or not.

I know it to be a fact.

liberals are too pansy-ish to actually hurt anyone -

With every single post, you are confirming what the rest of us already believe, you are not a troll, but a political operative here to further this story.

Don't think you're smart enough to beat us.

At some point you bend to an impossible standard. If you realize why that standard is in place, you realize why it can never be met. So you set standards of your own and do not waiver. The biased question is nothing. The ill-sourced one is larger. Still not even 10% Ratheresque, though. Keep some perspective.

Yeah. That's true. Gannon should have realized that.

I don't think we should have "journalists" covering the white house who use air america radio or rush as their main sources for questions...

What is your source that Rush is Gannon's "main source" (we're talking about his custom and habit, in addition to this particular question) and who here said Rush or Air America ought to be used as a "main source"?

you are making the point that if this is all there is to the story then why quit now?

Um, no, I haven't made any comment at all about his alleged quitting. I think we have firmly established you are in no position to be questioning sources or reporting styles seeing as your own inferences are so poorly reasoned.

You really don't know?

I am not passing judgment on what he did one way or another - I am just trying to set the record straight (excuse the pun). Gannon quit because of what Kos revealed, not because of the controversy over his questioning style.

Hopefully, Mr. Drudge is a tad more discreet with his private affairs.

Now that you mention Drudge and his private affairs, this all sounds very familiar...

He quit because his family is being threatened and it's just too much.

I'm surprised at you. Can't you see a hit piece when you read one anymore?

Let's not forget he had to be VETTED by the Secret Service before he was allowed in the West Wing. They KNEW who he was.

most people have no idea who helen thomas is.. I think she's the older lady who asks fluffy questions of know value I think.

It occurs to me, how would they know "Jeff Gannon" is a pseudonym unless they were trying to dig dirt on him?

You are so damn transparent, helen thomas is the most biased leftist hack in the White House pressroom.

.. and do check out the photos. The one at Talon news, and the one posted by liberals asserting this gay guy posing for the cameras.. These aren't the same guy, IMHO. I studied and compared and contrasted, I even aged the questionable photo.

I've read through the so-called "got him!" articles. What I perceive is most upsetting, the red herring, to liberals is.. first their allegation that Jeff is living a double-life. one as gay; the other speaking out against GAY MARRIAGE. That's my take on why they are attacking him. It's the "gay marriage" thingee..

I don't think Jeff is gay. I absolutely DO NOT believe that "gay" photo is Jeff, and the red-herring over the "soup lines". It is a red-herring. Jeff said quite up front in his question that he was quoting Rush Limbaugh.

Liberals for 30 years have been using "anonymous" sources to bolster a need for MORE TAXES, and have gotten away with that. Remember that AP story about the guy claiming to be former SEAL, speaking out against the WOT? He wasn't a NAVY seal. Did AP print the retraction? Demand the reporter be fired? Nope.

The issue, in my own analysis, is the "gay marriage" thingie. If I'm not mistaken -- I think this is the promise of the liberal wing of the Democrat party -- that they will run "gay marriage" is their overall theme. Just ask Mr. dean.

And the "alleged" (insidiously by association rumor) fact over "shared" domain names -- is just so, ridiculous and presumes EVERYONE ON THE INTERNET doesn't understand that one can sometimes share space with others unlike yourself.

And didn't the major newsies just win another round over "right to protect our [anonymous] sources"?

Yeah. I thought the "timing" of all this was most, um, interesting..

LOL
