plutherusOK, by now everybody knows about the fake reporter, hired by the GOP to ask questions at Bush press briefings, who was previously an anti-gay activist while running a gay porn site and working as a male escort.
Um, just in case you didn't, here's one link. There're lots others out there:

What gets me is, is anybody actually surprised about this? I mean, did anyone really think that the Bush administration was not hiring fake press, planting stories, being deceptive? Was there anyone who did not immediately figure out that the guy worked for the Bush administration about a second after he asked his famous question about people who think the economy is bad and "how do you reach out to people so divorced from reality"?
