“regularly scheduled press briefing has been delayed even further: WH press briefing scheduled for 12:30, then 1:45, now 3:15”

TRANSLATION: Jarrett was told CBS/NBC/ABC want an additional $75 Million.

It was time to shown them his horns, take the mask off and shown them the demon within - put fear into them. It’ll be interesting to see any “collaborative change” in narrative between the networks.

As a former reporter I will tell you that off the record is an excuse. There is no lay other than the law of continued access that stops a OTR comment from being reported. Period.

If the 'secret' Journ-O-list apparatchiks suffered no fallout after defending the Magic Negro's association with Rev.Wright, why should the regime fear repercussions when the same are now blatantly circling the wagons to cover his evil arse this time?

I’ll tell you something about Japan:

There’s something called “kisshya kai” —press pool. Groups in Japan are orderly, and they function like cartels —they keep things orderly and force markets to work in times of unusual stress, whereas a pure market might fail, in some sense.

But even if this is good for some markets, in others it’s bad. Like in the market for news —should groups of reporters regularly get together and decide in private what elements of breaking stories come out to the public...?

Because that is what they do with the MSM in Japan:

Groups of the really “pro” reporters in Japan feel so beholden to their government sources and to their journalistic group that they VERY rarely actually break stories. And so there is a quirk to Japanese political news —only the really “scummy” weekly rags (sorta like the Enquirer, but perhaps more like the Newspaper rages that would scream about Alien Space Babies found in watermelons) actually break major scandals.

And I see that same cartelized pattern at work in the USA, for at least 10 years now.

>> Why would reporters ever be invited to speak “off the record” by a politician?

What honest, self-respecting, independent reporter would PARTICIPATE, and keep it off the record?

As bad as this evil administration is, the fact that our “free press” are not really truth-seeking reporters at all is a far worse and more insidious problem. It endangers the Republic itself.

In fact, it’s because we have no truth-seeking press that we ended up with the blue-lipped Kenyan monkey in the first place.

This would be a good time for some of our elected representatives to shine some light on this nonsense. I won’t hold my breath.

” Let Cruz do it. “

One Cruz missle can’t replace hundreds of Republicans in the House & Senate. We need them all now, or suffer the ruination of our country. Note the silence of all the Republicans in D.C.
