[Skidmore]

1. This should be like

"Night of the Living Dead".

[Beaverhausen]

2. please keep us posted - although

I just ate and may be sick...

[LostInAnomie]

3. Leslie will probably ask a hard hitting question like:

How did you get in such great shape for those pictures?

[moobu2]

4. Or - how do you feel about the liberal bloggers who stalked you? n/t

[pbartch]

13. Why didn't Wolf ask Jeff: "TELL ME ABOUT THIS PICTURE"

Who are you posing for?

[JohnOneillsMemory]

15. Yup. He's a psy-ops 'agent provocateur.' See this propaganda explainer.

5. Blitzer's normal mode is to promote the story throughout the show,,,,

then give it 3 minutes at the end,,,, they want to keep you watching,,,,, I'll check back & see how it went, because I don't watch him anymore

:)

6. Why is Blitzen calling him "Jeff Gannon" ?

That's a FAKE name. He's spinning for him already

[moobu2]

7. Some knowledgeable press people over at dailyKos.com

suggested it was appropriate because that's the name everyone's familiar with. That's fine with me as long as they mention it's not his real name. In these live interviews, I'd like to see the press ask him which name he would like to be addressed as...

[RadiDem]

9. Maybe he would like to be called STUDMUFFIN !

:-)

[returnable]

8. Probably cuz Leslie Blitzer is cool with fake names

:hi:

[Mist]

10. Gannon on now

Blitzer asked "should I call you James or Jeff?" Says he uses Jeff Gannon simply because it's easier to remember and to say. "Gannon" really pushing the "harrassed by hate mail" story as to why he left his job so suddenly. Claims there were death threats. Blitzer asks about the gay sites - "I registered those sites for a client." B: Were you there to lob softballs or to get the news?" G: Talon is a valid news service, my 7000 readers wanted the news." B: what's connection between GOPUSA and Talon? G: its common ownership, that's all. B: what will you do now? G: I believe God closes doors and open windows - I think there are some opportunities I'm looking into.

"Gannon" REALLY pushed the hate/threat/harrassment "story".

11. This was an interview as a favor to the WH, rules must have been

worked out in advance for the interview. Puff peice , not a single question about the real story here. He gave Gannon a blow job.

[caligirl]

12. He did push the persecution angle and ignored his actions.

14. Jeff Gannon

Ron Reagan said it best. Just call him Mr. G for short.

[Dr Fate]

16. WHO is stopping Hillary, Kerry, Dean & Obama from talking about it on TV?

Why is everyone expecting the media to tell us how corrupt they are?

Top DEMS need to go on TV and accuse Bush of paying the media to lie for him.

I predict this will be added to the long list of Bush scandals that the DEMS let die. Next week this will be a dead story.

DEMS need to stop expecting the media to tell us how corrupt they are and start saying it to Wolf Blitzers face on TV.

Bush/media will get away with this Scot-free- and it will be the Democrat's fault.

[babylonsister]

17. I agree. Why are our representatives

not representing us? We can bitch here all we want and send e-mails and letters, but if those who get coverage, even minimal, don't stand up, we're sunk.

[Dr Fate]

18. Someone told me that DEMS "sent letters" to the media ...

...politely asking them to cover the story.

"Dear Wolf- please run more stories telling people how corrupt and biased the media is.

Sincerely, The Democrats"

So I guess they did do "somthing."

What a bunch of fucking idiots. DEMOCRATS need to tell the public how corrupt the media is- ON TV, not pundits either- but TOP NAMES.
