CBS Journalists ‘Pissed and Raving Mad’ at Gayle King Over Yacht Vacation With Obamas

Veteran journalists at CBS are reportedly quite upset with network host Gayle King after she enjoyed a recent yacht vacation with Barack and Michelle Obama in Tahiti.

King, co-host of "CBS This Morning," went on a star-studded vacation with the former president and first lady, Tom Hanks, Bruce Springsteen, and her best friend Oprah Winfrey on billionaire David Geffin's 138-meter luxury yacht, called the Rising Sun.

A source told Page Six on Thursday that CBS journalists are "pissed and raving mad" at King for vacationing with the Obamas while she anchors a news program that covers the White House.

"The ‘Capital J' journalists are pissed and raving mad that she was on a yacht with the Obamas over the weekend. The old-school people were talking about it. She shouldn't be doing that," the source said. "She's an anchor of a news program that covers the White House. You're held to a different standard."

"It's one thing to be friendly. It's another thing to go vacationing on a yacht," the source added.

Why are they held to "a different standard"? How many "standards" do (so-called) journalists have?

BTW, they call themselves journalists now instead of reporters because they stopped reporting the news a long time ago and now just comment on it (liberally).

Mad that they weren’t invited. CBS is fake news. This outrage is Kabuki theatre.

If it weren’t for double standards, they’d have no standards at all ...

They’re worried about possibility, no matter how remote, of compromising objectivity.

All of the news organizations literally in bed with the Obama White House (husbands,wives,brothers,etc) and THIS looks compromising?

This is so fake.

What about all the reporters dining and partying with Hillary’s campaign, and emailing Podesta to get “approval”?

Pfffft....

Gayle King is the primary reason I find CBS's morning news show to be unwatchable. Her smug BS destroys any chance at credibility.

JMHO

I just can’t watch any of those shows. Smug, smarmy, play actors trying to pass themselves off as centrist and knowledgeable everyday people. While just being nothing more than idiot propagandists reading everything they know off a monitor.

Its funny that someone thinks there is a “Capital J Journalist” at CBS. Or any other kind of journalist. What they have are Capital P propagandists.

Haven’t seen what she looks like...

Trust me...you don't want to see what she looks like.

I can't stand any of the alphabet networks, to include Fox...but I enjoy the news with my breakfast in the morning.

CBS would be the best, as far as width of coverage (I said width, not depth), but I cannot enjoy it because of her.

My eyes are drawn directly to her nose...it's as if I can see directly into her head through those huge holes.

I keep imagining a booger dropping out.

As far as Charlie Rose...I'm not even sure he's awake...and Norah Odonnel is engrossed with where every hair is...

So, suffice to say...I no longer get decent news with my breakfast.

But Gayle King is not just ugly...she's FUGLY...if you know what I mean.

I have not turned my TV on in the daytime for years (breaking news excepted).

Daytime TV is mindless drivel...

We know there is no distinction between the MSM and Democrat Party. They are one and the same. So, SeeBS can quit pretending as far as I am concerned.

So true. And they find themselves to be both profound and hilarious. Good thing they are their own best audience. Ha.ha.

If Obama were to spit on the floor, these "journalists" would fight each other over who would be able to lick it up.

That they put on airs as "objective" is as laughable as it is pathetic.

They are upset that she is making it so obvious. Wikileaks provided us all the proof that we needed that the MSM is just another arm of the DNC.
