How about the fact that he was a gay prostitute? Hindsight is wonderful stuff. He had managed to keep that secret for 2-1/2 years. He'd never been arrested for it, so how was anybody supposed to know? Hopefully, you are not suggesting that the government should keep lists of who is gay, and who isn't. How would you get on that list? How would you find out you were on it? How would you get off it if you were on it? Would you be happier if he had been providing "escort services" to rich old ladies? Would it make a difference? Too many people talk about this as though the government ought to know all and see all. I don't think we want that. |
I don't know that he was, and I haven't heard him asked that or the specific charge made before. Regardless, is anyone seriously suggesting that is the basis of the "scandal?" If so, do you really think the rest of the press corps would agree to be excluded based on morality checks or even investigations into whether they might have done something illegal sometime in their lives? The MSM will NEVER criticize gannon as gay or as a gay prostitute because those are behaviors they religiously protect.
Let's look at the reality of what happened here. Because this guy asked conservative styled questions (in a room full of totally liberal questions),left wingers began following him around, calling and threatening his family, and he was threatened with some kind of outing regarding some gay connection in his life. That's what should be investigated. The MSM will keep reporting this story in vague terms because they will never get on the side of harrassment of gays.
I don't think its a scandal, but it is kinda funny.
