This is a story because...?
see #12
Yes, just where is the 'big' story? Did Gannon/Guckert present a fabricated news story? Did he secretly meet with Pres Bush to coordinate a question? (lol) Was there any innaccuracy in his reporting that would warrant so much attention?
Just what is the big story? He's gay?
It is a story because this is how liberals always deal with people they don't like. Rather than debate the merits of an issue, they seek to destroy. This isn't about Gannon, it's about the "blogs" that are threatening the MSM. WaPo et al see an opportunity to paint all conservatives on the Internet with a broad brush - untrustworthy, shady, suspicious, gay marines, whatever the color of the paint.
Don't believe for a second this has anything to do with Gannon, it has to do with all of us and everyone like us.
