'Gannon' Signs Off: Guckert Says He'll No Longer Talk to Press |
|
http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000800287NEW YORK James D. Guckert, the former White House reporter who's been accused of everything from asking partisan questions to being a male prostitute, is no longer speaking to the press, claiming it does not help his cause, he told E&P this morning.
"I talked to attorneys, and I am no longer talking to anyone anymore," said Guckert, who has used the alias Jeff Gannon. "It doesn’t seem to clarify anything any longer. Everything I say, people start a new conspiracy theory. I am not going to answer any more questions. It seems to distract from what is really going on."
That approach is a shift from Guckert's activities in the past week, when he has appeared on CNN and National Public Radio and allowed several other news organizations, including E&P, to interview him.
Guckert, who says he is 47, said he was not planning any specific legal action related to recent events but had contacted an attorney just in case. "It's always good to have an attorney hanging around," he told E&P. "I'm not expecting anything, I am just listening to good advice."Yeah...you're gonna need a good attorney to keep your cute little buns from being ass-raped in a Federal penitentiary!

2. Probably a good idea seeing as how he is a witness in a criminal case. |

Back on the porch, little dog. And think about how your "friends" threw you to the wolves.

actually it's the opposite, clown. The more you have a "need" to chat with the real media the more you hang yourself. Finally you figured it out.

He is in deep shit and knows Shrub isn't going to save him, so he is going to quit incriminating himself and the Reich-wing.

11. Uh oh.....I expect "suicide" in his future |
|
This is NOT good. He's been told in no uncertain terms to stop shooting off his big mouth.
I hope Fitzgerald picks him up soon or we can expect a story about Guckert committing "suicide" ina motel room. Being arrested right now may be the only thing that saves this poor schmuck's life!

14. At least E&P uses his real name |
|
not his nom de guerre like Howie the Whore does. I consider that a victory at this point.

Wasn't smart to go on shows previously and LIE about his websites, when evidence of the truth was still out there.

22. of course he's stopped talking.... |
|
He doesn't want to have to answer questions about being a prostitute. He's been nailed on it, and can't lie his way out of it.

23. The man knows he's busted--and he's trying to shut his mouth |
|
to do damage control. The trouble is that what comes out of his mouth isn't the half of his problems.
