How did he get that Whitehouse press pass Joe?
Which circles was he moving in that enabled him to get a WH press pass with a fake name?
------------------------------------
Gannon first attended a White House press conference on
February 28,
2003, and there asked a question of then White House Press Secretary
Ari Fleischer. At this time Gannon had never had an article published, and was not associated with any kind of news organization (Talon News had not been created yet<SUP class=reference id=_ref-washpost218_1>

White House Press Secretary
Scott McClellan later said that there was no breakdown in security and no one intervened on Guckert's behalf to ensure his access, despite the fact that Gannon had been able to get a press pass for the White House using an assumed name.
