It wouldn't surprise me if half of them didn't have a degree in "journalism."
If I had a degree in "journalism" I would be too embarassed to say so, the way "journalism" is today!!!!!
Gannon and Talon News are as fine a news agency as any. The deal is that Gannon posted news so he's a news agency. And Gannon is a patriot, which I would presume is why our president's staff perhaps gave him preferential treatment compared to other web journalists, which is, in any case, their right to offer. Finally, the question that Gannon asked was a darn good one, which fairly (if not quite word-for-word) portrayed the Reid/Boxer disdain of American taxpayers. The bigger issue that the media should be addressing is why it takes an outsider like Gannon to ask such a provocative question about the Democrat party, in a press conference where the usual game is to try to ankle-bite the president.
This is a big deal about nothing, and while I feel sorry for our man Gannon, it's good to see the DumDems wasting their time on such a non-issue as this.
