This exchange took place this morning during the White House press briefing:

Tapper: It’s escaped none of our notice that the White House has decided in the last few weeks to declare one of our sister organizations “not a news organization” and to tell the rest of us not to treat them like a news organization. Can you explain why it’s appropriate for the White House to decide that a news organization is not one –

Gibbs: Jake, we render, we render an opinion based on some of their coverage and the fairness that, the fairness of that coverage.

We need to watch what other news outlets do. If they play Obamas game. We’ve got ourselves a chess match. Scary

IOW, you guys better report the news as we want it reported or we will make sure no-one goes on your programs or answers your questions.

The other news organizations better listen up, they will have to toe the line because big brother will be watching and handing out punishments.
