Methinks he doth protest too much
Kos makes a good point about Howard Kurtz's concern about delving into Gannon/Guckert's so-called "private" life that was, you know, on the Internet:
Apparently, he doesn't know that prostition is the world's oldest profession. People are digging into Guckert's professional life, not his private life.
Follow that up with Atrios' flashback to Kurtz's treatment of Dick Morris and it spells just one thing: hack.

When they want to take down an elected official, they use a two pronged attack: professional life (voting record) and private life - no matter how irrelevant. They're protesting so loudly because they think progressives shouldn't be able to turn their tactics around on them.
