In a lecture titled "Shock, Awe and Battle Fatigue: Covering the Bush White House," Bumiller described reporting on what she called "one of the most secretive administrations in history." Roughly 60 people -- only about five of whom were Yale students -- attended the lecture in Rosenfeld Hall.

"The White House has set a troubling standard for secrecy," she said. "I worry that future administrations will look at this White House as a model that has worked fairly well."

"secretive administration"

Hey, Ms Bumiller, can we - the public - have transcripts of the meetings of the editorial board of the NYT?
