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.
And you should be very worried.
Care to tell those of us who don't know, like me, what this is all about?
I don't understand your comment. However, I'm sorry Mr. Gannon is "leaving". Anyone besides me recall the "anal probe" by MSM into "Buckhead"? How *dare* Buckhead question ANYTHING. And in Mr. Gannon's case? The Good Ole Boys in the MSM don't like anyone presuming to challenge them on "their" turf. The question as I see it, and from all parties involved (MSM, Bush Admin)? "Do "credentials" matter?
Judging by her recent posts, MurryMom seems to be a moonbat and a troll (which explains the title she chose for her thread). One has to wonder how she's lasted on FR for so long. I'm sure that, in her yearning for objective news, she's also hoping for an investigation into Terry Moran as a favorite newspimp of the Bush-hating MSM. </sarcasm>
So who is Jeff Gannon?
I am deeply saddened...really :-(
LOL.
Sounds like he thinks he's a star or a politician. And that's the whole problem with journalists today.
He couldn't have been writing very much, being quarterback for the Oakland Raiders and all...
Jeff Gannon is the guy who asked one of the more interesting, non-Bush bashing questions at a recent press conference, i.e. with all of your opponents so divorced from reality, how are you possibly going to work with them? It was great.
Murrymom is the resident troll of FR. You can always count on her to parrot the DUmmie moonbat talking points. I think she's kept around because after all these years, she comes back for more and more rhetorical humiliation and it is quite humorous seeing her politcal insanity in action.
Apparently harassment continued, and he has decided to call it quits, which is a shame.
MurryMom is a leftist freeper who somehow has escaped Zotdom, and I really don't understand why. She appears periodically to chortle at any bad news for Republicans and conservatives. She is unfailingly mean-spirited, which is why I directed my "be worried" comment to her.
Oh, I'm so disappointed. He asked the BEST questions at the White House press briefings. He was just terrific.
Hi. Whatever happened to the DOW hitting 6000, like you predicted?
It looks like someone's meds have run out.
She's not a troll, in the true sense. Always polite...but a hoot just the same.
FMCDH(BITS)
I hate seeing this happen, too, but I don't expect someone to risk his family. We know that some of the left is quite dangerous.
Your definition of "polite" and mine are worlds apart.
He wasn't a pseudo journalist. But you're a pseudo conservative.
Now I remember reading about him, and hearing about him ... on Rush ... I believe.
Too bad.
Jeff Gannon was so on target with his questions; a simple sentence, posed as a question at White House press briefings, exposed the media for what it is.
I can well imagine that they threatened him...they have to protect their franchise.
I wouldn't doubt that.
The leftist(democrat) stormtroopers and their agents in the press strike again.
MurryMom returns. Tough choice here. I had given up scorn and ridicule for Lent. Please check back in 30 days...
Why was MurrayMom on Jeff Gannon's site? Did she KNOW that he was going to end his reporting? How would she know this? What information had she heard that he was going to quit?
The more I think about this, I really, REALLY would like to know the answers to these questions.
I thought fer sure that Murrymom would have moved to Canada by now. I guess she couldn't clear security....
She spreads malicious lies. Just the title of this very thread should tell you something.
Do you know who Jeff Gannon is? He had a seat at White House press briefings and asked the best questions I've ever heard asked at briefings. He worked for Talon News and wrote wonderful articles. And he's a freeper.
He is certainly NOT a pseudo journalist. Except in the eyes of a liar and a troll.
The Dems probably went after Gannon's family. MurryMom gets a stiffie when families get harassed.
there were a whole bunch of internet rumors that the owner of his site was the same owner as many other sites with less than wholesome sounding names...
don't know how to check these things.. Does any computer savy person know about this??
kinda has a ring like the homeland security guy who had a bunch of issues unrelated to nannies..
You can do a WhoIs search.
I was going to put that in my previous post but didn't want to sound like a tinfoil hat person.
But after reading the book Hillary's Secret War, for which Jim Robinson wrote the foreward and FR is featured so prominently in the book, I've come to understand just how the media operates with respect to sites like FR.
So I'm going to sound paranoid but here it is: The media are represented in bigger numbers on FR than most of us would suspect. They have an agenda to disrupt the site, spread malicious lies and discourage us.
I wouldn't be one bit surprised if the poster we are discussing is a journalist. Not one little bit.
Yes MurryMom.
Enjoy journalism from one perspective. Let them tell you what you want to hear.
They will tell you the night before an election that your candidate will win. Just don't be surprised when he loses big time the next morning.
Let your journalists tell you that elections in Iraq will be full of violence and will fail. Just don't be surprised when they are a huge success with very little violence.
Let your journalists parade fake documents as fact in an attempt to influence an election. Just don't be so surprised when they are clearly shown to be fraudulent.
Your favorite politicians will assign their lovers to positions of importance and public safety without being qualified. Your press will cover them by dismissing it as a personal problem. Your favorite politician will obstruct justice and commit perjury and your press will dismiss it as being a personal issue. Your favorite politicians will belong to white racist groups or black racist groups or anarchist groups and your press will dismiss it as being an issue of the past.
Life is so much more convenient when you get to pretend, right MurryMom?
Me, either. I suppose we can wear matching tin-foil hats.
She actually is quite amusing.
I know this delights MurryMom to no end. If she had her way, every conservative voice in the media and every one of us would be lined up against the wall.
when your "source" turns out to be rush limbaugh's radio show where he is proud he completely made up stuff atrributed to Harry Reid and then Mr. Gannon quotes the misquote without providing a source during a whitehouse briefing I'd say you've outed yourself as a fake journalist..
It's nice to hear from someone with a fresh point of view.
I wish him loads of success in the private sector.
Or more accurately, a pseudo-journalist. :o)
Tsk,tsk...You have 40 days, not 30...
Exactly.
I would miss MM like I will miss Dan Rather.....NOT
I would say you have outed yourself as a fake freeper.
Well now your name has gone on my list as well.
Did you understand yesterday's news reports about Karl Rove's additional job duties? Every single news outlet with the exception of FNC reported the story incorrectly and was the victim of a hoax.
Does that make ABC, CBS, NBC and CNN pseudojournalists?
That would be good to know.
With your gibberish above(i.e doesn't make grammatical sense)you've outed yourself as incoherent, IMO.
"What goes around comes around, doesn't it?"
You are in a very nasty spiteful mind today.
And I think you're a troll. Your name has been added to the list.
Moonbate is right, she believes Clinton kept the "peace" in Iraq and Haiti! LOL
Liberals are so easy to destroy!
In the end we will prevail, the TRUTH always does.
