D.C. Chapter to Hold Demonstration in Support of Jeff Gannon and the First Amendment, 2/18/05

All FReepers and lurkers in good standing are invited to join the D.C. Chapter in our demonstration this evening. Details in the following press release:


DEMONSTRATION IN SUPPORT OF JEFF GANNON
&
THE FIRST AMENDMENT


WHEN: FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 2005, 6 P.M. TO 8 P.M.
WHERE: THE SIDEWALK BY MONICA'S GATE,
AKA THE NORTHWEST VISITORS ENTRANCE
THE WHITE HOUSE, 1600 PENNSYLVANIA AVE., NW, WASHINGTON, D.C.

(Washington) The D.C. Chapter of Free Republic, an independent grassroots organization, will be holding a demonstration at the White House this evening in support of former Talon News White House Correspondent Jeff Gannon and the rights of other reporters to do their jobs without fear of being destroyed by the political establishment.

The group will also be bringing attention to several First Amendment-related issues pertaining to the current imbroglio. Among them are the unconstitutional efforts of Democratic congressmen to determine who is a reporter and efforts by the establishment media to shut out Internet-based news sites from having access to government press conferences.

I suppose we'll hear of how it all came out soon.

Funny thing though; these guys pretty much despise gays. I guess that the gays who shield Bush from deserved embarrassment don't count.

Huh?!? Shows you how delusional these guys are. Repugs control bouth Houses of Congress, the Presidency, and the Supreme Court. In addition, the mainstream media outlets have kowtowed so much to the Right that virtually nothing gets challenged. Indeed, the people who broke the Gannon/Guckert story weren't part of any establishment, be it media or political. They were bloggers!

And finally, I find it somewhat humorous that they're defending "Gannon" when in fact the guy's name is Guckert.
