(Gannon) Selling Gay Adult Domain Names Tied to White House Scandal

Four domain names that are associated with the latest White House propaganda scandal have been placed on the market.

The adult domains are registered to Bedrock Corp, the corporation tied to James Guckert, who is the reporter accused of being a propaganda tool for the White House. They have been parked at Afternic, an online domain broker.

Guckert’s two escort domains, militaryescorts.com and militaryescortsm4m.com, can be bought flat out for $7,500 each. The asking price for hotmilitarystud.com, his most popular domain in terms of traffic according to Afternic, doubles to $15,000.

The seller, presumably Guckert, or an agent acting on his behalf, will consider lower offers, but is seeking a minimum of $500 for the three best-known domains, while the rarely mentioned wrestlingm4m.com has a minimum of just $100.

On Edit: John from AmericaBlog is wondering how these sites which were "never hosted", according to Gannon, could have over 47 000 unique visitors a month???

;)

but we want the customer lists...seems only fair.

Yeah, that's it.

Standard proceedure when u sell a "service" business.

Seriously, who can get this to him????

Welcome to DU, Utah_liberal! Oh it would be so sweet if Flynt acquired those sites and used them to educate visitors about the fake reporter!

It's the principle of the thing.

maybe (just maybe because i have no idea if he would or not)

i don't know what Mr. Moore (or someone he knows) would think they could do with it, but i'm sending the infos & link to the mailbox shown at this URL:

http://www.michaelmoore.com/email/index.php

like, at this very moment... and hope he receives many others also.

Just the thought of putting shrub TANG pictures, Ollie North pictures, etc. on there would be worth it.

EIGHT CENTIMETERS, CUT! :evilgrin:

I guess his clients aren't calling on him anymore.

A devout "Christian" who has renounced his past on the one hand, yet still seeking to profit, and profit handsomely, from his "fornicating."

"Thou hypocrite!"

That is the promise on the home page of

http://www.MarineMeat.com/MarineMeat.html

which is a link I followed from the article (not a Gannon site, but one supposed to be popular in the genre).

Now that is what I call obscene.

Is this guy a moron, or something else going on here?

Makes me think it's not Guckert that's selling, but whoever it is that backs him. :shrug:

His ridiculous behavior since the scandal broke suggests that he feels very well protected...HMMMMMMMMM! Kind of makes you wonder who that might be?!!

Something's really weird here...

He CANNOT be this stupid. He is reaching out to the media to do ever more stupid shit-Does not compute.

mad:

This makes him look desperate enough to be "suicided". I wonder who's pulling the strings.

:eyes:

You would think that one of his handlers would have taken care of that tax bill a long time ago. But, on the other hand, this Guckert guy is a total disaster. Maybe they are just letting him twist in the wind.

I know from time to time cops bust internet call girls. Personally, I think they shouldn't since the internet allows them not to have to have pimps and empowers the girls to do what they want if they want to.

However, They DO bust internet call girls, so....shouldn't someone complain to the authorities about this out in the open violation of the law?

Just sayin'

I was watching a bit of Joe Scarborough and he was talking about how they have these porn cards you can buy and they were selling them to kids and he had a whole segment on this. Of course he has yet to mention anything on Guckert and his whole hypocriacy and whatnot. :eyes:

...and a discrete one-way trip to the Bahamas must be more than JG can pay for out of pocket.

Maybe this was his plan all along to make some cash....?

Has no discretion, no common sense, and should soon be coughing up a tell-all book and modeling No-Excuses jeans (do they still exist?). Who can put him in touch with Judith Regan?

He is a whore through and through and this story is just going to keep getting better!

I will never understand why MSM doesn't touch it. I still say if this had happened on Clinton's watch, they'd have killed him.

It's obvious. The Bush administration and neocons control the MSM. And of course if it was Clinton or any other democratic president they'd be impeached for this. I live in a fucked up government.

Can someone PLEASE buy this one?!? And then we can promote it as "formerly owned by Jeff Gannon" - how cool would that be? Come on, who can cough up $100?

got a problem of FRAUD by claiming 47,000 unique visitors per month to a site that never had any content.

FRAUD, Jeffie!

Better ask Karl what he thinks.

It is a different site -- militaryescortsm4m vs. hotmilitarystud -- but that is even more outrageous.

Now will Wolf Blitzer look into this little discrepancy?

Either Guckert is lying, or he is lying!

but an outrageous claim nevertheless. How can they have 125 000 UNIQUE visitors per month -- that's a population of a nice-sized fucking town -- without any content on the site???

claimed those sites were for a client, claimed they were never built, etc. etc. - is he lying about the traffic now or was he lying before?

"hotmilitarystud.com" into their browsers just for shits and giggles every month?


;)

someone like this just does not stop cold turkey, I wonder what he switched his address to now.

Without it ever being active.

Was it WHILE he was working at the White House?

Or was it before? And after 2+ years, he still gets 125K hits a month???

all of US checking it out? LOL

after it got all of the publicity. The first number of 47,000 or whatever is probably right, I think.

I just clicked on the link posted by karlschneider and it was down to 93,020. Anyone have any idea why?

If he can investigate whorehouses in New Orleans, and bust Tommy Chong for bongs, why isn't he jumping on this moral travesty?

Well, maybe he is....

:D

Rove or whoever his paramour is in there, that he has no intention of going away. I think it's funny! KEEP YOURSELF IN THE NEWS JIMMY JEFF!

many list members with violence and even death when they say ANYTHING about the Military that he doesn't understand, just keeps yelling about CENTCOM and how those who do not bow to CENTCOM will suffer revenge for their lack of respect to CENTCOM.

I'd bet this lunatic is on an alcoholic bender to hide from Gannon, his whore.

And this country yelled it's head off about a little consensual, heterosexual, ADULTEROUS, felatio with its recent fixation on Monica. Ah, it is to laugh (sadly).

(and not to defend Guckert in any way) but the traffic to those sites is pretty easy to explain. These domains have been mentioned and discussed extensively all over the web, on Air America Radio, and even on TV. I'm sure that there have been thousands of curious people typing them into their browsers to see what comes up (I'll bet that a lot of you have). That alone could account for all of the uniques he's getting. People pay money for the kind of exposure those domains have been getting for free. Also, selling domains is not unusual at all (I've done a little domain name speculating myself in the past) but I do think that he's asking way too much for them. They have high traffic right now but the interest in them will eventually die down and so will the traffic.

By the way, he's probably making at least some money off of them right now. Most of the links on those Afternic "for sale" pages are actually paid ads and the owner of the domain gets some small amount everytime someone clicks on one of them.

FWIW, I've sold a few domains through Alternic in the past and it wasn't unusual to get a couple thousand hits just off the auction pages, and those were for uninteresting domains that had no media attention.

If a site like Slashdot can inundate a website with more than 10k users an hour (the well documented and much feared "Slashdot Effect"), it's not inconceivable that traffic from the blogosphere has driven those numbers to the 50k range over the past day (the traffic stats are realtime and automatically increment up every time some blog reader hits one of the domain names).

Those sites are owned by Bedrock, right? Is Guckert associated with them in any way? Or did he just have Bedrock buy/register the domain name?

one of the addresses associated with Bedrock is Guckert's home address, that's how his real name (if it is his real name) was discovered. So presumably he owns Bedrock.

He owns Bedrock.

I don't know much about what standards they use for those stats -- is a 2-week spike enough to justify the claim that they have 125K visitors a month?

Those stats are probably automated as Xithras said. So the figure for average monthly visitors is most likely automatically extrapolated from that two week spike. That's why I said that I didn't think the domains were worth what he's charging and that the current level of traffic will probably drop drastically.

is listed as an "advisor" to the Pro Wrestling Republican Coalition. http://www.prowrestlingrepublicans.com/aboutus.shtml Maybe he could interest the old wrestling coach Speaker Hastert in going together to buy that wrestlingm4m site. Of course not all God fearing Republicans have been so keen on bringing wrestlers under their tent. http://www.canoe.ca/SlamWrestlingRock/rock_00aug01.html

The longer he keeps himself up on top in the public eye, the less chance that he will be "suicided". This way, he keeps a profile high enough to not draw "additional" attention (if ya know what I mean) but is still able to draw enough cash to get him to a safe, undislosed location. Once he's out of the US and incognito, why should they waste their time "suiciding" him?

It may sound stupid, but I would probably do the same thing in his shoes.

the espionage scandal has been forgotten.
Everyone is now looking at the Plame leak
No-one is looking at the mess in Iraq
or the LIES that were told in a previous State of the Union address.

GannonGuckert was PLANTED there as a ticking time bomb
to DIVERT attention from the neocons.
Naked-boy is doing what he is paid to do.

If the Biblebangers walk out of the GOPIMPUSAPARTY then the neocons will "console" the twit and manipulate him all the more easily.
And they KNOW they can depend on us to go after this scandal big-time because of what they did to Clinton.

planted to be a diversion. I think the part of his life about the gay websites was unknown to the WH. Thoughts?

They knew, but they are bullet proof. Hell, they are fighting an illegal and immoral war based upon lies and no one can stop them. What's the big deal about a plant in the WH who just happens to be internet savvy and conducts sextracurricular when not being a journalist.
