Former Daschle Campaign Spokesman Says Media Was Aware Jeff Gannon Had Told Lies About His Identity As Far Back as the Summer of 2003

The Nashua Advocate: Former Daschle Campaign Spokesman Says Media Was Aware Jeff Gannon Had Told Lies About His Identity As Far Back as the Summer of 2003

An excellent report from the staff of the Nashua (NH) Advocate, the online journal of the election reform movement. Mainstream media had the facts on Gannon months and months ago, and nobody--not news directors, not editors, not even reporters, did anything about him.

Furthermore, as Salon reports, even now as this has all become public, the mainstream media are avoiding the story like the twelve plagues. Most major newspapers and two networks haven't mentioned the name "Gannon" at all!

"Oh, what a brave new world we live in!"
