Here's the New York Times' first story on Jeff Gannon. They're pushing the Valerie Plame (dead end) angle. NYT -- try doing some reporting --- the Wall Street Journal had the story before Jeff Gannon.

By the way, I'm still waiting for an article by one of their own reporters on Eason Jordan's comments. They posted an AP article with Jordan's clarification on their website in the "Arts" section at 8:00PM today.

Probably trying to keep attention off that cameraman who was just convicted of selling military equipment to Iran.

I grow suspicious of "a Web site called Media Matters For America."

If the Democrats always had their way, all Congress would do is have investigation after investigation after investigation.

Say, maybe that's not such a bad idea.

The desperation of the Democrats is beyond belief. Those people cannot win again with the way they are, it is an impossibility.

I don't think he's the first reporter to use something other than his birth name. Geraldo Rivera comes to mind.

Wow, the twisted libs are in major trouble -- talk about poor little sheep who have lost their way -- right into hard Socialism and obstruction. Their new profession. This country certainly does not need them, but they need the country to exist..and if it were not for the mind-numbed, lock-step DUmmies, they would have been history, long ago.

Two Democrats in Congress are pressing for investigations into how a Washington reporter who used a pseudonym managed to gain access to the White House and had access to classified documents that named Valerie Plame as a C.I.A. operative.

Actually, it wasn't a pseudonym at all -- Sandy Berger was his real name.

Really, I demand an ivestigation of Marion Morrison...went by the name of John Wayne and futher demand the entire Democratic membership of both Houses Jump up and Spin forthwith!

But seriously folks...Every reporter at the White House presents ID with the full name, the full REAL name that is. Did these idiots ever hear of a Nom De Plume?

Gee. I could easily tell by the way this article was written the Times has no ax to grind (hahhahohohohheehehehe).

We should put the list on this thread of all "journalists" who use "professional" names. Doesn't Jennings? I know Blitzer does. I'm sure there are many, many others.

HEY DEMOCRATS...

WE WANT AN INVESTIGATION OF KURTZ, HIS SOURCE-DAILYKOS/ZUNIGA, and the Fact that ZUNIGA WAS ON THE HOWARD DEAN PAYROLL.......

Oh...and throw in the fact that DAILYKOS had a post on its site today about raising money for the DNC.


Keep pushing it Dems....it's already been exposed that Gannon was not running porn sites and that he has been slandered.

Keep pushing it Dems.....Slaughter, Kurtz, Dean, and his pals will just get exposed more.

Its time to see if the Dean Coordination with dailykos violates any campaign finance laws.
When people got to meetings for planning purposes...that usually indicates coordination.

Did Dailykos raise solicit any money in the last campaign that went to Dean?

And the NBC correspondent who worked on a UN puff book while an active correspondent. And another network's cameraman involved in Iraq--can't quite recall the details right now (see! It's working!) And Rathergate. And the "Iraqi weapons stockpiles being used against our boys." I'm sure I'm missing a lot more.
