This Legend-of-Zelda-Gate requires a Congressional investigation, and the CBS fake memos, during a presidential election season, does not. Right.
As I see it, Gannon's crimes were:
1) Writing under a pseudonym. Yawn.
2) Being biased. Openly. No problem here, at least he's honest.
3) Having a questionable past. But how does that affect his journalistic career? Sure he's not squeakly clean, but he's not posing as a reverend--just as a minor reporter.
The only issue here is how he got the pass--I imagine that for the background check he gave his real name, and he wrote under his assumed name. Is there something more to this story?
Not just any 'questionable past' - one that most libs embrace, champion, and feel is deserving of special rights!
Does Barney Frank get a pass? Sure, why not Gannon. The whole thing is a wonderful tempest in the teapot to keep the opposition busy. An excellent distraction -- they chase it like some dog chases a ratty tennis ball. They can't help it.
I believe the WH has already stated they knew he was writing under a pseudonym and he obtained the pass using his true name.
