3. Gannon issue mentioned by Howard Fineman on the Chris Matthews
Edited on Sun Feb-13-05 01:36 PM by caligirl
show this morning. At the end he mentions the guy who got press credentials, a blogger who got White House press credentials and the press association is going to have to deal with it. I'll go looking for a transcript and post here when it comes out. He was talking about G/G.


No transcript on line yet.

4. Please...
Who are the other reporters that were in his class, and where are they now?

What are the websites that first syndicated Talon News, and who owns them?

Is there any possible connection between Talon News and Talon Executive Services, Inc? Talon Executive Services, Inc was founded by ex-secret service personnel and do full espionage for corporate and government clients:

"Because of his expertise in the field of anti-terrorism, Mr. Williams was asked by the California Gubernatorial delegation in 2002, to meet with Tom Ridge regarding homeland security. His association with AFAUSSS (Association of Former Agents of the United States Secret Service), ASIS (American Society of Industry Security), ATAP (Association of Threat Assessment Professionals) American Water Works Association (AWWA) Association of California Water Agencies (ACWA) to name a few, keeps him abreast of all matters involving security and threat assessment. He is also an active member of the FBI’s InfraGard program, U.S. State Department Overseas Advisory Council (OSAC) and OCPST (Orange County Private Sector Terrorist Response). "


The sites and logos are similar to a worrisome degree:

9. Gee, I wonder if Talon Exec will be one of the security contractors
Bill To Toughen Border Security Advances
http://www.talonexec.com/strategic_alliances.htm
Talon News
February 11, 2005

(Talon News) -- The House of Representatives on Thursday passed legislation intended to boost security at U.S. borders in an effort to make it more difficult for terrorists to enter the country. The Real ID Act contains provisions, inline with recommendations of the 9/11 Commission, which were dropped in order to assure quick passage of the original anti-terrorism bill late last year.

The legislation (H.R. 418) is sponsored by House Judiciary Chairman James Sensenbrenner, Jr. (R-WI) who said on passage of the bill, "This unfinished business from last year aims to prevent another 9/11-type attack by disrupting terrorist travel. The House and the Bush administration understand the REAL ID legislation passed today will address a number of vulnerabilities in our border and homeland security efforts, including states issuing drivers' licenses to illegal aliens."

Information Security

Proprietary data and information, "The Crown Jewels" of a company is under attack from outside hackers, and internal inside employees. The financial repercussions for lost of valuable R&D research, financial records, and other proprietary items can be devastating.

Governance such as Sarbanes-Oxley, the Gramm-Leach Bliley Act, HIPPA and SB-1386 in California are legislative laws that must be
complied with.

Talon Exec and Talon news are in deep with the government

5. Talon Executive Services, Inc.
" Mr. Williams frequently appears on Fox News Channel as well as other national shows as a security analyst and terrorism expert. He was also the keynote speaker at the 1999 Alabama Governor’s Conference on Violence in the Workplace Prevention, has made presentations to the California Association of Water Agencies which included a White Paper, and continues to educate organizations on various security issues through specialized seminars and training."

11. Talon has BIG money contracts with the government
Edited on Sun Feb-13-05 02:08 PM by ultraist
More NO BID contracts BS

I have to wonder if they also helped with the "election"

Talon Exec offers services to protect from hacking, data protection, etc

Edit: NO, that is not the registration info, those are firms listed on Talon Exec. Sorry, my post was misleading.


I don't know how to look up site registrations!

6. Saw this ... great stuff! PROPAGANDA is THE major problem in USA!
Edited on Sun Feb-13-05 01:46 PM by Griffy
do what you can to support alterative media, like Internet News and progressive radio.. and hopefully progressive TV news.. like Anti-fox, someday! Make sure people you know understand how serious it is to have a truthful news source! And how dangerous it is if we allow others to propagate lies for fact!... (example I like is the government abstinence only program teaches you can get pregnant from masturbation.. no joke)

10. Thanks. I needed to catch up.
I checked out jeffgannon.com after viewing the clips and I noticed a link at the bottom to http://www.allgamerentals.com

Was that always there? I haven't seen any other discussion about it.

Maybe it's meaningless, but at least I know not to do business with them.

12. I think Jeff, "don't call me Jack Guckertt," GANNON (Pitt)
is a minor part of this story. There is something very strange about Talon Exec & Gov't Security Contracts.

Additionally, this propaganda machine is more sophisticated than just Williams, Gannon, and the other person that was busted.
