White House briefing bar: Media groups condemn exclusion

Media groups have reacted angrily after several, including the BBC, were barred from an informal briefing with White House Press Secretary Sean Rat-Bastard Spicer.

The excluded New York Times said the move was "an unmistakable insult to democratic ideals".

The bar came hours after President Donald Total Lying Bastard Trump delivered another attack on the media, saying that "fake news" was the "enemy of the people".

The BBC has asked the White Nut House to clarify its exclusion.

BBC bureau chief in Washington, Paul Danahar, said: "We understand that there may be occasions when, due to space or circumstances, the White House Nut House restricts press events to the established pool. However, what happened today did not fit into that pattern."

He added: "Our reporting will remain fair and impartial, regardless."

Friday's briefing had been scheduled as an on-camera event in the briefing room but was changed to an informal off-camera event, known as a "gaggle", in Mrs Spicer's Cinnamon's office.
Explaining the move to go off-camera, he said: "We don't generally do, we haven't done briefings when the president's had a major event."

Mrs Sean Rat-Bastard Spicer. said an "expanded" pool of journalists had been invited to the gaggle. Pools are not uncommon - the journalists attending then share their reporting with the White House press corps.

However, the choice of those attending, including groups seen as friendly to the Trump Cockbags administration, and the fact that other journalists who asked to attend were refused entry drew condemnation from media groups.

White House Correspondents' Association President Jeff Mason said it was "protesting strongly".
The BBC, CNN, the New York Times, the Guardian, the Los Angeles Times, Buzzfeed, the Daily Mail and Politico were among those excluded.

Those allowed into the room included ABC, Fox News, Breitbart News, Reuters and the Washington Times.

The Associated Press, USA Today and Time magazine refused to attend as a protest against the move.
Both the Washington Post and McClatchy said they were unaware of the exclusions at the time and that had they known, their reporters would not have attended the gaggle.

Both said they would not participate in future briefings if the exclusions continued.

Well at least Cindarella Trump and is stick insect wife will not be attending the Ball for the white House press.

I wouldn't give Melania too hard a time. Apparently she's been getting increasingly desperate and sexually frustrated for the last year, and the situation is ever worse since her other half was elected. el presidente is so fed up of anything sexually related after a hard day of being Putin and/or Bannon's catamite, that Melania hasn't got any for months. This has had unfortunate results and word around Washington is that you have her for a kind word and a cheap bottle of rose.

Amazing what difference there is confronting the world by newspaper or web with or without the reading glasses.

I had read about Trump's caving in to whatever group on birth control (as if he gives a crap one way or the other), so then after the reading glasses slipped off I read the OP as "Condom Exclusion."

-Sighs heavily . . .

Another four years of this? Can you guys just go back to your bad cooking and leave us alone every once in awhile?

No need to quote....most of us can follow conversations and threads and side threads - i hate having to read the same thing 20 times-50 times on the same fuking thread, over and over again.

WM I just said, coincidentally, on another thread 5 mins ago His wife – I don’t actually mind her – But I can tell just by looking at her she feels trapped doomed forever, to the adulterer. You have noticed too haven't you. I think she will chose ice pick - you can see that in her eyes you know.

As i said before via lunacy, intelligence, prophetically, mr spock logic - http://www.collarchat.com/m_5002301/tm.htm

and yet only you two have commented - most others are in denial, blind faith, of their fuking heads

Fair and impartial reporting is no longer desired for the future

The proposed revision of the first amendment:

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof (Islam no longer permitted); or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press (as long as it is FOX NEWS); or the right of the people peaceably to assemble (except is no longer allowed to attend town hall meetings held by Republican politicians if you voted democrat), and forbidden to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.




longwayhome -> RE: White House Media groups condemn exclusion (2/27/2017 3:53:24 PM)

The BBC has its faults but I think the exclusion of a high quality news outlet that tries to produce balanced journalism is a pretty good indication of Trump's position on the free press.

The interest the rest of the world is showing in Donald Trump is not everyone else interfering in US domestic politics. I am not personally invested in the Democrat/Republican hate show and the fine nuances of domestic political life in the US is not really my bag. The ginger toupee has however made himself an international issue which it is difficult for people from other countries to ignore.

Furthermore he has become an obsession for US posters on this forum like no topic before. Once you exclude RM and his anti-feminist stream of consciousness, almost every topic on this forum is about him directly or indirectly. Edwird, if you guys don't want non-US posters talking about Trump on a website with an international membership, we're all going to have to try to post about something else.

I'm sick of Trump but the bastard just wont go away.

After decades of partisan coverage by media elitists; being told they don't have a right to privileged access to government officials has to be an unpalatable reality check. Trump being a clown or not besides; it is good to see someone reinforce the fact that a "White House Press Corps" is a privilege and custom granted at the convenience of the government and not some kind of entitlement.




longwayhome -> RE: White House Media groups condemn exclusion (2/27/2017 5:47:26 PM)

Part of a healthy democracy is making senior members of the government available to the media, whether or not you agree with the left/right bent of the outlet.

Excluding people from the White House Press Corps on the grounds of poor social behaviour seems perfectly reasonable. Doing it because you don't like the stories they write or broadcast is a heavy-handed and sinister.

This media, is a part of the Democrat party and / or the entrenched political establishment that voters have rejected. They are no longer "the media" by their choice, they have chosen to become opposition political activists, and they are going to be treated as such.

They are a part of the news now, they are news makers with a definite propaganda agenda. This president is smart to acknowledge that fact and to address the problem head on.

Corporations are political activists, pedo pimps are political activists, nutsucker slobberblogs are political activists, the nutsucker Il Douche is a political activist, all with a propaganda agenda, and we are treating you as such, felchgobbler gobbles.

If there are media outlets that are producing fake news, and the FBI has told you that the stories are fake, would you not do something to attempt to "punish" them, or "reward" the other media outlets? Fox News wasn't the only media outlet allowed.

So, the only thing the excluded news outlets missed out on was an opportunity to ask questions of the Press Secretary. Oh, and timing. They got the info later.




kdsub -> RE: White House Media groups condemn exclusion (2/27/2017 8:25:54 PM)

Trump had better hope there is no truth in the accusations and that a fair impartial investigation can be made. If, after his extreme condemnation of the media, he and or those associated with his campaign are found to have been in collusion with Russia to influence the election he will loose the trust of the American people. I do not believe his Presidency could survive the fallout.

I do hope he is innocent but even if he is the way he has handled the situation does bring his competency to lead this nation into question.

You can narrow the goalposts as far as you like, the president and baby spice are wrong in this.

Time to get the fuck over it or soon he'll get no coverage at all unless it's the Comedy Channel.

Didn’t someone do a thread on here re how many times trump had lied in his first 33 days, and it came in at and some 136ish times? I seem to remember 33 on his twat account.

So are they going to rename it gaggle to gobble? And only those prepared to get drunk on rank spunk welcome?

nods at The Associated Press, USA Today and Time magazine refused to attend as a protest against the move.

as it should be.
