More Strange Fruit

For those with interest in the continuing Gannon/Guckert saga, as well as for those concerned by the absence of liberal voices in the mainstream media, this Raw Story article is worth a read. It's about a discussion panel on the future of journalism (there have been a lot of those lately), and it stars the right-wing's favorite gay prostitute, plagiarist, and reactionary propagandist. Which suggests that they really couldn't care less about journalism as a serious endeavor.

From the article:

"RAW STORY has reported on myriad examples of alleged plagiarism by Gannon, one of the most stinging allegations that can be leveled against a journalist. The Press Club has held various panels on plagiarism, some focused on former New York Times reporter Jayson Blair. Blair was not invited to such panels."
