Whoa!
Red State comes to this conclusion:
Much has been made of the “honeymoon” or “lovefest” between Obama and the press. This seems to be the part where the press’s eyes are finally opening a bit to who they got into bed with. Underneath their liberal instincts, the MSM is still on some level fiercely protective of their trust to protect the integrity and freedom of the press. Obama and co effectively here cheated on them and then blamed the victim. And belittling Helen Thomas, a veritable icon for what a White House press corps member would aspire to be is akin to the Obama and co. love team striking the beloved grandmother of the profession.That could be, but I like Rush Limbaugh's specific interpretation:
Now, what they're talking about, what's obviously outraged them here is the HuffPo guy got into the last formal press conference with a staged question, he was told the night before you gonna get in there on a temporary pass, a visitor pass and here's the question that we want you to ask and the guy was more than happy to do it. The question he asked was, "Mr. President, we're in contact with people inside Iran, Iranian citizens, and they are saying X, X, X." The whole thing was staged, and the press, see, they're outraged here that Gibbs would stage this. So what this means is, they know everything else has been staged. How did they know this town meeting was staged? They only know it because everything is. Folks, that ABC thing, that infomercial was staged. It was a filibuster. He got 60% of the time. And the questions were largely known. ABC didn't want anybody in there who didn't agree with the whole premise of socialized medicine, nationalized health care. So they know. They know.Regardless, the jilted lover speaks, and it's soooo much fun to watch.
The reason they're really mad is not the stuff is staged or they'd have blown up about it long before this, they're mad that an interloper got in amongst them at a serious press conference, the HuffPo. It's nothing more than an in-debt blog. It's nothing more than an in-debt blog, and these people, they are serious practitioners of the art of journalism, and to have an interloper thrown in there, they're ... mad...
There's my two cents.
