SW: an active member of the Nat'l Press Club
For those to need to catch up, perhaps, see <i>World O'Crap</i>'s version of [http://blogs.salon.com/0002874/ "'Jeff Gannon / James Guckert' for Dummies,"] with links to other versions (February 23, 2005).
==Current Statusstatus==In June 2008, ''Editor & Publisher'' reported that Gannon / Guckert is an active member of the [[National Press Club]]. "Since 2006, Gannon ... has been a member in good standing and currently serves on two press club committees, according to the esteemed journalistic organization. He also blogs on the Press Club Web site, as well as on his own online page." <ref name="PressClub">Joe Strupp, "[http://www.editorandpublisher.com/eandp/news/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1003817747 Former WH Reporter Jeff Gannon Now a National Press Club Activist]," ''Editor & Publisher'', June 18, 2008.</ref> "Press Club rules require that a new member be sponsored by at least two current members in good standing. Gannon said [[Rick Dunham]], then with BusinessWeek and now a Houston Chronicle reporter, was one of his sponsors. He said he could not remember the other." Dunham said that he sponsored Gannon / Guckert because he wanted the Press Club "to expand our membership into blogging and multimedia." <ref name="PressClub"/>
According to a May 2007 ''Washington Post'' column, Gannon / Guckert is now the spokesman for the [[International Bible Reading Association]]. "Let us pray for the power to understand how Gannon made his way from HotMilitaryStud.com to the International Bible Reading Association," ''Post'' columnist [[Dana Milbank]] wrote drily.
