You don't get it. Well, you have a media "outfit" called GOPUSA that morphs in to "Talon" (against a backdrop of paid "reporters" getting out the "news" the admin thinks is fit to print). Talon then picks up a "reporter" who doesn't seem to have the credentials to be a reporter, and who doesn't act like a reporter, and who gets called on more than a lot of real reporters. Even if you LOVE this administration, you've got to admit that the job of the press is not to sit and speak on command if you are a reporter. You should be asking tough questions about SOMETHING sometime, or so I think. I think that's a story. Add the fact that there are links to Rove and Plame, it's even more of a story. Add the fact that the guys job history includes porn site management, and escort services (gay or straight, it makes no difference) and that he is using an alias, well, I have to say that looks like a pretty hot story to me. I don't know of any reporter quite as "interesting" as Jeff/James. Hunter S. Thompson often got in to the news for matters much less flamboyant (imo).
