Nice.
WASHINGTON, D.C. – A prominent CNN commentator, the top two political reporters for The Huffington Post, a Reuters reporter, the editor of The Nation magazine, a producer for Al Jazeera America television, a U.S. News & World Report columnist, and approximately two dozen Huffington Post contributors are among the more than 1,000 members of Gamechanger Salon.
http://eagnews.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/top-secret-300x217.jpg (http://eagnews.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/top-secret.jpg)Founded by leftwing activist Billy Wimsatt, the group is a secretive digital gathering of writers, opinion leaders, activists and political hands who share information, ideas and strategy via a closed Google group.
The group’s existence (http://mediatrackers.org/national/2014/08/04/inside-gamechanger-salon-lefts-action-network) was discovered by Media Trackers through an open records request (http://mediatrackers.org/wisconsin/2014/07/29/secretive-leftwing-network-discovered-through-wi-records-law) filed with a University of Wisconsin professor who happened to be a member of the network.
Sally Kohn, formerly a Fox News contributor, now works for CNN (http://sallykohn.com/category/clips/) reliably echoing pro-Obama Administration talking points and championing leftwing ideas as a network commentator (http://www.cnn.com/OPINION/sally.commentaries/archive/). Kohn is also a member of Gamechanger Salon, and e-mails show that she occasionally approached the group’s membership and asked them to promote her television appearances.
“I’m guest co-hosting CNN’s Crossfire tonight at 6:30pm EST, with fellow co-host Newt Gingrich. I would be grateful for folks (a) helping spread the word on Facebook, Twitter, etc to encourage people to tune in; and (b) tuning in and live tweeting during the show,” Kohn wrote (http://mediatrackers.org/assets/uploads/2014/08/kohncrossfireemail.png) to the group on January 14 of this year.
The rest.
