Obama White House bars press from press award ceremony
there would have been no story here if hussein didn't bar the press. that's all we need now is a bunch of "i told you so back in the fall" blogs, cable news analysis, etc.
from just today:
Obama White House bars press from press award ceremony
but why should he care about something as innocent as an award ceremony presented from the NNPA? here's a couple of their member's publications which his foes will have a field day with: Final Call & The Muslim JournalWe are not making this up:
Barack Obama was elected commander in chief promising to run the most transparent presidential administration in American history.
This achievement and the overall promise of his historic administration caused the National Newspaper Publishers Assn. to name him "Newsmaker of the Year."
The president is to receive the award from the federation of black community newspapers in a White House ceremony this afternoon.
The Obama White House has closed the press award ceremony to the press.
From the president's official schedule:
"Later in the afternoon, the President and the First Lady will attend a reception with the National Newspaper Publisher Association in the State Dining Room, where they will be presented the Newsmaker of the Year award. This event is closed press."
Maybe they'll let the newspaper people pass the award through the fence.
