Hey, I have a good idea.

Why don't we set up a Web site (lib, or course) kinda like Talon News and see if we can get a "journalist" that writes for the site into the press room.

Wouldn't that be great? Maybe we could do a spinoff on TruthIsAll (Will Pitt) and have him show up for a "daily press pass."

Gee, Scotty why don't you approve of Will? Oh yeah, he's got to wax first. LOL!

1. I'll do it!

I even have a journalism degree! That's a lot more than Gannon ever had!

2. Thing is, they really do background checks.

I'm convinced. I mean, hell, when Bush went on the road hyping "Social Security Reform '05," the Republicans of North Dakota were diligent as hell when checking references and making prejudicial decisions, while authoring a "no-admit" list. They excel at the "ideolical background check."

They're so incredibly incompetent on the national level, that they really think when it comes to actual credibility, nobody will notice. Bernie Kerik, fer chrissakes! They knew, they knew, they knew. But they were so convinced that they had the MSM in their back pockets. They just didn't count on the impact of the bloggers, and the independent media.

There is no way one of us would get past their media net. It's all about the message, not the credibility. They'd quickly learn that someone like Will was not a bearer of the message, because they actually do research the ideological side. And how.
