The National Press Club Welcomes ... Jeff Gannon?
The National Press Club Welcomes ... Jeff Gannon?

By Joe Strupp

Published: March 28, 2005 Updated 3:50 PM ET

NEW YORK Jeff Gannon is back -- at the National Press Club?

Yes, the same day that the prestigious Washington, D.C., journalism organization plans to present a lunch talk by former Washington Post executive editor Ben Bradlee, it will also allow the former White House reporter/sex site operator to be on a panel discussing bloggers and online journalism.

Gannon, whose real name is James Guckert, resigned his job with the conservative Talon News last month after it was revealed he had used a pseudonym, had little journalism background, and had ties to male escort Web sites.

Still, Press Club leaders will include Gannon on the panel April 8 that includes Wonkette.com editor Ana Marie Cox, National Journal's John Stanton, and others.

all about Robert Woodward's phony "Deep Throat" devices. See

www.metroactive.com/papers/sonoma/07.03.97/scoop-9727.html and then read about Lt. j.g. Robert Woodward's naval intelligence background prior to working for the WashPost

http://www.webcom.com/ctka/pr196-woodward.html

Bradlee was real good buddy of former ambassador Graham A. Martin, the loo-loo who STOLE documents (now in possession of the Gerald Ford library) related to the JFK assassination, Diem assassination

http://www.ford.utexas.edu/library/guides/Finding%20Aids/Saigon%20Embassy%20Files%20Kept%20by%20Ambassador%20Graham%20Martin.htm

Bradlee knows a lot more than he lets on, "national security"-wise I mean. With Gannon/Guckert, Bradlee is now in good company, don't you think ?

5. I think the following passage is so telling...
"Gannon told E&P he "thinks it is a good opportunity for me to speak to issues related to bloggers." He also added that he was, "trying to stay out there where people can see me."

seriously.
