Via Newsbusters:
According to Sun-Times columnist and long-time Chicago journalist, Carol Marin, journalists at Barack Obama news conferences have come to realize that Obama has pre-picked those journalists whom he will allow to ask him questions at the conference and many of them now “don’t even bother raising” their hands to be called upon.
One wonders why journalists are allowing this corralling of the press? Would they have allowed George W. Bush to pre-pick journalists like that? Would they meekly sit by and allow themselves to be systematically ignored, their freedom to ask questions silenced by any Republican? Would journalists so eagerly vie with one another for the favor of Bush like they are Obama’s?
One thing’s consistent from the campaign in that Obama only takes questions from reporters who are in the tank. Its called propoganda boys and girls and it what subversive countries do.
Its still remarkable foreshadowing of things to come if a President cannot take questions from his hometown paper. Its not good any time you deliberately attempt to mislead the American people. good thing Obama and the DEMS have all those psycophants on board in the MSM.
