Jeff Gannon had been under scrutiny since asking Bush at a press conference last month how he could work with Senate Democratic leaders "who seem to have divorced themselves from reality."
Seems like a respectable question to me, but recall that I told you that sort of Common Sense has no business in American media, and he would never make it very far as a mainstream journalist.
This is what the left has to say about it:
Jim Manley, a spokesman for Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.), welcomed the news. In his question at the presidential news conference, Gannon had said that in an effort to disparage the U.S. economy "Harry Reid was talking about soup lines," which is not accurate and which Gannon later acknowledged was a characterization he picked up from Rush Limbaugh."The media not reporting the truth? Well I’ve never.
New media or old media, the fact is the question he asked was based on a lie, and that's unacceptable," Manley said. "Fundamentally, what he was reporting was not truthful."
