Jeff Gannon Strikes Again!



You remember Jeff Gannon (NSFW), don't you? When not defending the indefensible Ann Coulter, the former "Man-Whore" -- and we mean that quite literally -- is on the comeback, trying to reclaim a dubious at best career in journalism. From FishbowlDC:

"Monday night, a few hundred media types -- and students -- gathered at the National Press Club for the latest installment of the Kalb Report, moderated by Marvin Kalb.

"The topic was, broadly enough, 'The Future of Journalism,' and the panel included Ann Marie Lipinski, senior vice president and editor of the Chicago Tribune, Sean McManus, president of CBS News and Sports, Cliff Sloan, publisher of Slate and vice president of Washingtonpost.Newsweek Interactive, and Paul Steiger, managing editor of The Wall Street Journal and vice president of Dow Jones & Company.

On the subject of female news anchors -- more specifically, Katie Couric -- the point was made that some viewers just aren't comfortable with a woman reading the nightly news. Couric, it was noted, also has to deal with issues that her male counterparts do not (no one ever analyzes Brian Williams' clothes or the maintenance of his eyebrows).

".. When they allowed questions, however, things got a little more interesting. Case in point: After a few questions about blogging, former White House reporter Jeff Gannon took to the microphone and asked a question about media bias."

You do your thing, Manwhore, you ... do ... your .. thing.
