Me: Garrett’s leaving fox.
Him: “That is horrible news. I really like Major Garrett. They must have offered him a ton of money to leave that front row seat at the White House. At least he will still be in journalism.”
Me: Don’t you mean that “at least NOW he’ll be in journalism”????
Are you hearing Glenn Beck begging for JUST ONE journalist to investigate and report on what is happening, placing truth above politics? You think he’s not including the Fox “newsroom” on this??? I have HAD it with Fox. Methinks Garrett might too.
Her: “That’s really disappointing because he’s so good. But this does offer us the opportunity to link to his stuff directly.”
Me: “And it will be very interesting to see if he’ll rip off the muzzle and writes what he really wants America to know… we’ll see. And then we’ll know… Compare and contrast what he reports then with what he’s been reporting.”
Her: “Not even Fox is covering 8/28 and that is a disgrace…”
Me: “I have a suspicion that Glenn might be making an announcement pretty soon — the Glenn Beck online TV network. Buh bye, Fox.
Sooner than later…

Mediaite has learned that Fox News White House correspondent Major Garrett is leaving the network effective September 3rd to return to his roots in print journalism. White House correspondents Wendell Goler and Mike Emanuel will assume joint coverage of the WH beat for Fox News.
The highly respected White House reporter weathered numerous battles between FNC and the White House and maintained the highest standard of journalism during his tenure. Developing…
UPDATE: Brian Stelter of the NYT tweets: NYT’s @jwpetersNYT confirms that National Journal is hiring Major Garrett away from Fox News. Apparently Atlantic Media owner David Bradley wasn’t fooling around when he said he wanted to take on Politico. [GM]
I’ll be sorry to see Major go. It’s sad that the only “news” channel out there still isn’t reporting the NEWS. They try, but, I think they’ve been muzzled. Some of them are just too friendly with Obama. That troubles me. I want the TRUTH no matter how “bloody” it might be. I can deal with the truth. What I can’t deal with is all the cover-ups that the lamestream media are complicit in these days.
The Fox News connection to Ground Zero mosque Hundreds of thousands for project’s imam come from high-profile network investor
“The Saudi prince whose post-9/11 relief check was rejected by former New York Mayor Rudy Guiliani has found a more willing recipient in the city for his millions: the head of the Ground Zero mosque project.
The same Saudi potentate, Saudi Prince Alwaleed bin Talal, owns the biggest chunk of the parent company of the Fox News Channel outside of the Murdoch family.
Former Bush advisers have similar ties to the prince and the proposed mega-mosque in Manhattan, which may explain why they’ve asked Republicans to soften their opposition to it.
WND has learned that one of the original board members of the nonprofitgroup promoting the 13-story mosque and “cultural center” took the job as a favor to James A. Baker III, the former President George H.W. Bush official and lawyer who defended Saudi government officials against a lawsuit filed by families of 9/11 victims. Baker has counted bin Talal as a client.”

So HOW do we get this information out there for all the world to see??? Andrea, I appreciate what you do now more than ever. At least I’m discovering the truth even though I wish it were better. I can see now what Glenn Beck is trying to expose. Thanks for enlightening me.
I wish there was some bookie I could go to and bet every nickel I own that Garrett will express more liberal views in his reporting at his NEW job than he did at his old one.
Easy money.
You could be right. Jury’s out. We’ll be watching to see if that’s the case…
