Propaganda-gannon-guckethon

Daily Kos has posted a digestible press release of the Gannon dustup, with salacious details de-emphasized. This is not a story about a hypocritical man in underwear and dogtags. It's about the Bush administration planting propaganda shills in the press corps, and the larger story of how our mass media has lost almost all its credibility. Who funded Gannon's rising star? Who pays the bills for Talon News and its sister site GOPUSA? Texas Republicans. If journalists fail to reclaim their profession and do their 4th estate duty, that profession will wither and die. And then your're in Pravda-land.
