In brief:
Jeff Gannon is a "reporter" for the Talon News Agency who has been accused of lobbing softball questions to President Bush in White House Press Briefings
In light of the recent revelations that some pundits and reporters have been taking cash for spreading the Bush Gospel, some bloggers (and others) got curious about Gannon and launched a multi-pronged investigation into his background.
Conspiracy ensued. Fake names, mysterious access to the White House, dummy companies, gay prostitution, and a curious silence from the principal parties.
Americablog has been covering it nicely.
Here's a good recap from
MediaCitizen.
Atrios turned me on to it.
Daily Kos is following the story.
