Uncover any f***ing stone possible. If it were just little puppies believing every word from an authority then it'd suck ass. Its too bad that most investigative reporting of any consequence really went out for the most part with the Pentagon papers [god, I'm such a history nerd] in this country.
February 11, 200521 yr Author Whoever did? Although I find it odd that this dude was the ONLY person allowed to use a pseudonym in the White House press pool.

Its a sad fact of life when the best investigative reporting goes into investigating each other instead of the s*** that goes on right in front of them.
February 11, 200521 yr Author What's most sad? This tidbit of investigative journalism didn't come from anyone in the establishment. It came from a blog called "World O Crap."
February 11, 200521 yr And oh yeah if anybody is wondering what the other sites were that this guy was registered to: hotmilitarystud militaryescorts militaryescortsm4m Its not just his entire lack of press credentials but that he was also linked to prostitution sites. Gannon was also given a classified CIA memo that named agent Valerie Plame, leading to his grilling by the grand jury investigating her outing. Its scary that a man with links to prostitution was given access to confidential CIA files. http://www.nydailynews.com/02-10-2005/news...6p-239417c.html
February 11, 200521 yr Author He also registered exposejessejackson.com too. But I'm afraid to look and see if that's a porn site or not.
