White House: Washington Post Article 'Flat Wrong'
By Jeff Gannon, 2/4/2005 9:38:46 AM

certainly opinion, or propaganda. jeff gannon has been widely criticized for quoting wholesale from gop press releases, without attribution ( http://mediamatters.org/items/200501280001 ); asking softball questions at press briefings and presidential press conferences ( http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1000787908 ); and -- even though he's just a reporter (presumably writing under a pseudonym) for 'talon news', a minor web site associated with another minor website gopusa.com -- he's somehow been given presidential press credentials ( http://mediamatters.org/items/200501280006 ).
