Obama never did this. The Obama administration did a lot of unacceptable things in regards to press access, including THREATENING to deny access to Fox News to one interview. But they never followed through with it. The threat was bad enough. This mother +++++er just actually did it. That is a key distinction, don't you think? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roswellcoug Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Instead of hosting the typical briefing on camera in the briefing room -- which in the first month has been regularly broadcast live on the major cable networks -- the White House invited the pool, which on Friday consisted of Hearst Newspapers and CBS, into Spicer’s office, along with a select group of other outlets. Because of the presence of the pool, the information was still shared with the entire White House press corps. In addition to CBS and Hearst, the White House invited NBC, Fox, ABC, One America News Network, The Wall Street Journal, McClatchy, Breitbart and Washington Times reporters to attend. Reporters from outlets including the BBC, CNN, New York Times, Los Angeles Times and POLITICO were not permitted. http://www.politico.com/story/2017/02/reporters-blocked-white-house-gaggle-235360 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
