White House spokesman Scott McClellan On Thursday challenged liberal media activists, who are currently feigning outrage over events surrounding
"Jeff Gannon," to examine the definition of reporter in the new century.
"In this day and age, when you have a changing media, it's not an easy issue to decide or try to pick and choose who is a journalist. It gets into
the issue of advocacy journalism," McClellan said.
"Where do you draw the line? There are a number of people who cross that line in the briefing room.

In yet another blatant attempt to silence any non-liberal in the media the liberal-media'nazi's are attacking a reporter for asking a "harsh"
question about demon-crat obstructionism in congress.
Just read this whining from the left.........
"NEW YORK Who is Jeff Gannon, why are some White House reporters saying terrible things about him, and why did the group that handles credentials for
Capitol Hill correspondents turn down his request last summer, as E&P has learned?
Gannon, the White House correspondent for Talon News, a pro-conservative Web site linked to GOPUSA.com, has drawn attention recently among those who
cover the president for what many consider to be an especially partisan approach. He is known for inserting blatantly pro-Bush statements in his
inquiries at televised press briefings.
"Would they let Joe Lockhart or someone who works for the DNC [Democratic National Committee] come in and do that? I don't think so," Edwin Chen,
who has covered the president for the Los Angeles Times, told E&P. "They ought to get legitimate members of the fourth estate, not political hacks on
either side."
White House reporters say Gannon has regularly attended daily press briefings for more than a year. Then, during President Bush's televised press
conference on Jan. 26, the president called on him for a question, bypassing dozens of far more experienced reporters."

over 90% of the media is comprised of ultra-left nazi's that want to tell you all is evil in the world because of america.
I say, good for you Gannon........give'm hell..............
