Liflelikepundit's exclusive interview of Jiggy

1. What credentials do you have to participate in White House press conferences? How do you define "journalist?"

Gannon: I was a reporter for a news service that published 5 days a week to a national audience in the hundreds of thousands. I wrote over 500 articles for Talon News. The basic news story answers the questions: Who, what, where, when, why. My stories did that.

2. There have been many complaints and skepticism by the establishment media about the "unchecked" conservative blogs involved in bringing down professionals like Dan Rather and Eason Jordon. However, they do not seem to complain about the allegations brought against you in "unchecked" liberal blogs in as much as they are repeating the allegations in newspapers and on network/cable news. What is the difference between what happened to Eason Jordan and Dan Rather and what has happened to you? Do you believe it involves your political beliefs?

Gannon: What happened to me is extraordinary not because of what was discovered, but the motivation of those who went looking for it. If it was to get a conservative reporter out of the White House, they accomplished that early on. Even today, they continue to flog bizarre conspiracy theories to explain something that they cannot grasp, that there can be such a thing as in independent, conservative journalist. This is indeed as much a political assassination as anything, the justification for which is based on a false premise.

3. You resigned your position at TalonNews.com and stopped posting to your website stating you did not want to hurt your family. Who is your family? Are you married? Do you have children? Does your reappearance on your website suggest your family supports your speaking publicly in your defense?

Gannon: There were threats of physical violence made against me and my family. I am not going to further comment about the makeup of my family because of continued security concerns. My family is supportive of my efforts to tell my side of the story.

4. Suppose you are gay, how would you reconcile that with your conservative beliefs? Do you see a conflict?

Gannon: You are asking me to comment on a hypothetical.

:wtf:

He's an absoulte nim-rod in the smarts department, ain't he?

-- at least theoretically, since we don't know anything about his personal life, only his professional. I know that many female prostitutes are lesbians in their personal lives, but can make much more money selling straight sex; likewise, a straight guy will make much more money selling gay sex than he would straight. So, since -- unlike the conservatives contend -- we don't know anything about, and we're not interested in his personal life, we don't know for a fact that he's gay either.

That said, his answer is crap because all he said was "you're asking me to comment on a hypothetical.". Well, duh, Jiggy! "SUPPOSE you are gay" is obviously a hypothetical. You're a conservative ideologue, dude, I'm sure you have an opinion about whether it's ok to be gay and conservative at the same time. Even if hypothetical.
