Jimmy Jeff's back in the news



Gannon: 'I'm here. ... Deal with me'
August 27, 1:08 AM


It’s been more than two years since Jeff Gannon (birth name: James Dale Guckert) resigned from Talon News, a conservative Web site for which Gannon served as White House correspondent. At the time, some theorized that Gannon was liberally granted press access in order to ask softball questions of White House officials. Others were taken aback by nude pictures of Gannon that appeared on male escort service Web pages. A few questioned his lack of journalism education and experience.

Well, Gannon’s back, and he has his claws out.

“I’m not going away,” Gannon tells Yeas & Nays. “I’m here. These people created me, and now they’re going to have to deal with me.”

Gannon will release his book, “The Great Media War: A Battlefield Report,” on Sept. 4. The book chronicles his experiences at the White House and what he believes is the media’s liberal bias.

On syndicated columnist Helen Thomas: “She’s little more than a heckler.”

On NBC’s David Gregory: “He’s a show-boater.”

2. this part here-He hopes his book will allow readers to learn about the real Jeff Gannon
um ok "His readers"? and why would anyone think anything in that book will be true? I really don't need to learn anything more about him.

3. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
Helen Thomas: “She’s little more than a heckler.”

David Gregory: “He’s a show-boater.”

.....and I suppose your fav reporter is Billo, Jeffy? I wonder if his book states how many times he paid casual visits to KKKarl.

6. The not-so-great pretender
When he was turning tricks, he pretended to be an ex-Marine. Then he pretended to be a journalist. Now he's pretending to be a book author. Has this guy ever drawn an honest breath?

7. I often wondered why this guy's "press credentials" weren't questioned by the WH press corps?
I remember seeing a videa of him asking the "Dems detached from reality" question and wondering how this guy could go into the WH press pack day after day and not have his press credentials questioned. I mean, there were many "professional journalists" there from major news outlets, but no one seemed interested in who this guy was...
