Good point. I do feel that JG would've stayed were it not for harassment of his family.
I feel two things:
1. I find his behavior odd. I know, not being in his shoes, it's easy to judge. But I think he had an opportunity to expose one of our worst internal enemies: the MSM. He seemed to buckle and run awfully fast. Not, as I've said, a profile in courage.
2. If I were smarter and a better news-story researcher, I'd do a major essay on the GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY that both he and the GOP seem to be missing now.
"Gannon" is targeted because he is the only reporter there not on the attack, not asking questions NONE of us would ask or care about, saying things red staters would say. Now we have NO representation in the WH press corpse, NO ONE asking our questions.
Gannon, for instance, blew a rich opportunity in his interview with Blitzer. Blitzer said, "...you wore your politics on your sleeve. Everyone knew you were very conservative." He simply responded, "Absolutely." He should have said, "That was a main difference between me and the others, and it is what they hate about my. I was open and honest. Their politics are equally plain: they are extreme liberal absolutists. They align with a slim minority in the country, ideologically. They just aren't honest about it, and hide behind this lie of 'objectivity.'"
I fear the moment's passing.
