...And Speaking of "Speaking" and WTOP: Plotkin Disses White House Press Corps

“What’s the deal with the White House press corps?” Mark Plotkin wants to know! The WTOP commentator writes:

“Last night the President had a press conference. But where was the press? I know they were sitting in their designated seats politely waiting to be selected to ask a question.

They all know the drill. The president has prepared for him a short list of the annointed few. They get to stand up, speak in the microphone and have their 15 seconds of fame.

I don’t fault the President for trying to control the press.
