The White House did not respond to inquiries from CNSNews.com about these invitation only and listen only conference calls for news media sponsored by the first lady's office. Don't you get it CNSNews? No questions. Ever.

What’s not clear in the story is whether reporters knew ahead of time that they would be passive attendees. A “listen only” session shouldn’t necessarily preempt a (low-level) reporter from attending, but no reporter worth his salt would subject himself to this crap treatment if they were led to believe that it would be a participatory session.

Mark Levin was saying the other night that Hillary had gotten in trouble in the past on something called “open meetings” problem. Anybody else hear that, and know more? Thanks

Could you imagine if Laura or Barbara Bush tried something like this? There would be outrage and a mass boycott by the MSM. More hypocrisy.

Somebody explain to me how this isn’t propaganda. Leni Riefenstahl would be so proud.

This is pre-campaign image making related to 2012.
She is raising her profile a bit at a time preparing her entrance into outright campaign mode. These empty events soften up the polls and to burnish her celebrity status and public image, beyond being the Mom In Chief.

Whatever she says will be news, of a sort anyway, so reporters should call in. But when they give their report, they should emphasize that questions were not allowed. and that they are wondering why Mrs. O is unable to do more than make proclamations.
