It’s kind of a good day to be a Democrat
All things considered.
- The “Jeff Gannon” scandal is endlessly entertaining. Here Mark notes a little something:
“All defenses of this situation start with the premise that the news website he represented, Talon News, was a major source of news with a wide readership. They claim 700,000 users. But according to Alexa, which is the most notable service which tracks such things, Talon News ranks #640,377 in web traffic. That is, there are that many web sites that receive more hits.
By way of comparison, the site you’re reading at the moment is composed of two separate web addresses. My weblog page (www.newsfromme.com) ranks #104,130, and the rest of the site (www.POVonline.com) ranks #226,035. Maybe I can get clearance to go in and participate in presidential press conferences.”
I am proud to be able to tell you that Ink 19 also ranks higher than does Talon news. The Ink 19 White House Press Team consisting of me and James “the” Mann will be winging our way eastward soonest. Clearly we deserve credentials if anybody else does. And here’s John from AmericaBlog with a list of questions we might ask about and/or of “Jeff Gannon” when we get there.
- And our so-called representatives actually seem to be standing up and standing together.
