TRANSPARENCY?!? OBAMA'S SECRET MEETING: Media 'pets' invited. Who was on the list of 'bootlickers' endorsed by Obama?
To whom can America turn in these troubled times, as Hope and Change appear to be foundering? We can turn to Obama for answers!
Having explained to us that Fox News cannot be trusted, Obama has taken the additional and important step of endorsing certain pundits, opinion leaders, and "journalists" as President Approved. Who is on the honor roll:
Here's a curious turn in the White House vs. Fox News fight.
On Monday, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann and Rachel Maddow were among several people who attended an off-the-record briefing with Pres. Obama at the White House. Sources tell us other attendees at the two-and-a-half hour chat included Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post, Maureen Dowd of the New York Times, Gwen Ifill of PBS and Gloria Borger of CNN. Perhaps not surprisingly, no one from Fox News was in the room.
...Update: The White House has sent TVNewser the complete list of those who attended the off-the-record briefing Monday: Eugene Robinson, E.J. Dionne, Ron Brownstein, John Dickerson, Rachel Maddow, Frank Rich, Jerry Seib, Maureen Dowd, Keith Olbermann, Bob Herbert, Gloria Borger, and Gwen Ifill. Several members of the staff also attended.
There you have it. Now we know where to look for President Approved Punditry.
It must have been exciting for Ron Brownstein to meet heavy journalistic talents like Maddow and Olbermann.
On a side note, WE believe Obama didn't want Chris Matthews in the meeting because he didn't want to have any stains on his furniture.
