Alright, here we go, friends. This is my first diary, I figured I'd put it to some use. So, we're looking into the intern scandal that sprouted up about a year ago concerning Columbia School of Journalism graduate Alex Polier.
Background on the scandal:

See below for more.
Right now I'm just reading things and putting them together in some kind of a timeline, anybody who wants to help, please do! Thanks very much everybody. And thanks again to SusanG, NYBri, Atrios, and everyone else who has been working on Gannongate! Good luck everybody.
Just a clarification: we are working on this because it seems that Guckert was one of the first ones to have at this intern story. We are hoping to trace the story's trail to hopefully gain some insight as to how Guckert's network is set up (which will hopefully shed some light on the Plame leak. I tried linking to SusanG's diary but I keep messing it up. It's here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/2/10/18912/4159#113
Please don't recommend this diary, all recommendations should go to SusanG's diary.
