Politico
I am posting this as a PSA:

Politico is a right wing stealth organization.

They are hard right

They are as right as Fox News.

They were founded by shadowy right wing money.

They are not a reliable source

They are Talon News without Jeff Gannon.

They are Free Republic in a suit and tie.

They are not to be trusted.



We now return to our usual squabbling.

3. I've been doing this sort of PSA since about a month after they went in business in 2007
Opening Day for them was the same day as the 2007 State of the Union by MiMS

2. Speaking of Jeff Ganon--Talon news...
I haven't heard of either in years.... Hopefully his move to obscurity will continue.

4. I heard he had plastic surgery and took diction lessons. Here is a recent picture:















That's a total fabrication. That isn't Jeff Gannon-Guckert. That's one of the two operating stars at Politico.

7. They love to stir up $hit. They sort of remind me of a political NY Post.
I have been puzzled as to why Keith O uses that organization as a news source and features its reporters.

9. Research Hint:
Edited on Thu Jul-28-11 02:23 PM by Stinky The Clown
Google the owner, Albritton Communications, as a start. Discover who owns them.
