Are your paper's covering Gannon at all?
Searching for Gannon in the Philadelphia Inquirer gives me one article which is not by the Inky's political correspondant. Doing the same in the Philadelphia Daily News returns 3 LTTE. This is a disgrace. We need to keep hammering down the door on this. There is no reason why this shouldn't be covered aside from the media being owned of course. Keep hammering on this. Demand it be covered.

1. Been lookin' high and low
in the New Haven Register but not one mention. There was something in the Hartford Courant. The Register takes Bush's word on everything so no surprises there. Not sure if it was covered in the Yale Daily News.

3. Columbus Dispatch had the Maureen Dowd piece.
Then, a few days later, there was a story about Gannon that made him sound like an innocent victim. That was last week - nothing since then.

Of course, this is the paper that reported at length on Bush's visit to Germany without even mentioning the record-breaking protests in Mainz.

4. Just one hit when searching Knoxville News Sentinel.
For the only major paper in the middle of a very RED East Tennessee, the News Sentinel does a decent job of trying to be balanced. It has a conservative slant IMO, but not so much that it is exempt from criticism, as some around here think it is a extremist liberal paper. (Well they do print Molly Ivans from time to time, so I guess that does make it liberal. {sarcasm off})

5. South Florida
Broward - South Florida Sun-Sentinel. One tiny mention in a column by
By Charlie Madigan, Tribune senior correspondent titled, "A White House plant?"

Miami Herald did a column (IGNORANCE MAY BE BLISS, BUT IT'S ALSO DANGEROUS) on it and there have been some LTE's

6. One of the Daily News LTTE was mine.
Of course they cut out a lot of it but at least it got in there. My brother called me and asked why I have to be so insane in public. LOL.

7. A syndicated columnist carried by the
Peoria Journal Star has written 2 columns about it. I forgot his name. The last one was about where is the outrage?

Other than that, nothing.
