Of course, this is all old news, but I was so amused by this “news” outlet. Talon News, a sister website of GOPUSA.com, founded by Texas Republican Bobby Eberle, who is the CEO of both. Talon News’ stated mission is: “Spread the conservative message throughout American.” However, I noticed: “description” content=”Talon News is your source for unbiased news coverage and no-spin reporting. If you want the facts without all the slant, Talon News is the place to go for political, national, and international news.” is their site description. This seems rather oxymoronic. How can this be “news?” Of course, Talon News has made news of late with the Jeff Gannon (or whatever his name is) incident in which a pretend reporter intentionally lobbed softballs and GBW.
Finally, it is interesting to note (found here):
GOPUSA.com, a Web site run by Bobby Eberle, a Houston engineer with no previous journalism experience, scored an interview with President Bush’s top political adviser, Karl Rove.
Mr. Eberle is the CEO of GOPUSA.com and Talon News, Jeff Gannon’s employer. He regularly writes on GOPUSA.com under the byline:
By Bobby Eberle
Talon NewsSo GOPUSA.com gets access to Rove. Interesting. Gannon/Talon also get access to CIA documents that expose undercover CIA operative Valerie Plame. Very Interesting. Is there a link? Only the Justice Department investigation knows. Wonder what’s holding up that prosecution?
These folks are hilarious.
