Democrat “journalists” are thieves. Sounds like they should run for office and step up their game.

The corrupt White House wants corrupt journalists to be less corrupt when riding on a taxpayer funded plane.

“For years, scores of journalists — and others — have quietly stuffed everything from engraved whiskey tumblers to wine glasses to pretty much anything with the Air Force One insignia on it into their bag before stepping off the plane,” Politico reported.”

“For years, scores of journalists — and others — have quietly stuffed everything from engraved whiskey tumblers to wine glasses to pretty much anything with the Air Force One insignia on it into their bag before stepping off the plane,” Politico reported.

But that is not good enough for many of those aboard the plane, Politico’s report noted, describing the sounds of plates and glassware clinking in journalists’ backpacks as they disembark.

In one instance, a former White House correspondent for a major newspaper hosted a dinner party, serving food on a set of gold-rimmed Air Force One plates that had been pilfered over time, according to the report.
But in a town of ambitious strivers, at least one journalist heeded the scolding from the correspondents’ association — culminating in the “discreet return” of an embroidered pillowcase after a meeting was arranged between the reporter and a press official in a park across from the White House, Politico said.

“The pillowcase changed hands, and that was that.”

Per your link in post #4, making the pillowcase drop in Ft Mercy Park should have left a message for the thieving reporter.

It’s our tax dollars. But they’re wasting our money anyway.
