This is a perfect example of Fox news reporting. Ask a question that makes an accusation that the white house is sending out unsolicited emails. And when he gets a answer or a way to check if it actually had come from the white house, he just keeps on asking the question. Does this reporter realize that someone could send an email and say its from the white house. With so much misinformation floating out there, especially on Fox, it could very well be the answerer to this knucklehead's question.

I heard about this while I was listening to Rush the other day. The way Limbaugh framed the clip made it sound like Gibbs was dodging, or somehow trying to get info on 'snitches'. It's amazing how much shifting the context of a sound bite can alter an interpretation.
It happens all the time. Sean Hannity is the champ on using a partial sound bite to make his poiint. These tactics are used to scare people. Like you made it very clear on your blog, if you want to hear what the Dems are doing don't visit Rush for that information. And on the other side don't vist Move On for their take on the other side. There is so much information out there you just have to look and keep a open mind.
I just heard a news update on NPR that said the white house did send out the emails, but that it was a mix up caused by someone advocacy group posting email addresses on the white house web site, or something like that. The administration better get this kind of stuff under control. It doesn't look good, and it gives too much fodder to the other guys.
