Remember Talon? by gibuu2005-02-11 10:35:51
  Some things not mentioned in that particular by Blackbyrd2 2005-02-11 10:58:03
article; (Apologies if these have already been mentioned elsewhere.)

Gannon/Guckert had access to the CIA memo used in outing Valerie Plame.
His 'degree' in journalism came from a $50 weekend course at a school connected with GOPUSA.
He was denied a regular press pass by the office responsible for that, yet was given a daily press pass to every press conference to allow him access.
(Note that I am NOT advocating the denial of access just because a journalist doesn't have an impressive resume. I am merely pointing out the additional evidence that he was planted by the administration to throw softball questions and write supportive articles under the guise of 'independent' journalism.)

I won't mention except in passing the hypocritical stance he has taken regarding gay marriage, because this isn't about his personal politics/lack of integrity so much as it is about how he was a shill for the administration.
