I'm going to write ABC tonight, and tell them that Yellin's disgraceful conduct is just another reason why I haven't watched them in years and never will again.

Eh? I don't think you'll even get a form response from them if you say that.

These people have lost all sense of reality.

No, I'd say they've lost all sense of their own morality. A bit of advise to Yellin and the other reporters: "Be nice to the little people. You're still one of us."

No. Reporters are Gods. At least that's what they think. Remember, we're stupid morons that don't know what to think until they tell us every night on the news.

Ridiculous and irrelevant question for the event. This report is a nutcase.

But it sure makes the conservatives look good !!!
Imagine how the viewers must have cringed when their happy Christmas tour was ruined by left wing misery and hate.
It's like dropkicking little Barney across the room right in front of the camera.

I don't care if they do or don't respond. I'm not doing it to get a letter from them. I'm doing it to say my say.

"This is almost like how the perky Katie Couric made her career. She was interviewing Barbara Bush in a White House tour as a correspondent for the Today Show. George Bush came into the room and Couric immediately started interviewing him. He stayed for about 10 minutes before Barbara pushed him out of the room. NBC repackaged the Bush interview as a prime-time NBC exclusive, and Couric was added to the Today Show team within the year. -PJ"

Boy PJ, I remember seeing it LIVE and dang near went into the television to try and slap her. IIRC, it was in Sept of 1992, about six weeks or so before the 1992 election, and went something like this......

Lil' katie was with Barbara interviewing her about some just completed WH "restoration and decorating", and as the President was walking past them,(going to a meeting or something) "perky" IMMEDIATLEY left Barbara in mid-sentence, GRABBED his arm, pulled him into the "shot", and then did the "Oh what a surprise, Mr.President !! Do you have a "second" to talk ?"....

The President KINDLY replied "Well, OK", looking like he didn't want to rudely interupt his wife's interview, as you could see Barbara, still in bewilderment that she was rudely left by her "interviewer", being cut off and abandoned right in the middle of replying to a question asked of her.

The VERY NEXT THING out of lil' katie's mouth was something like, ( and this isn't an exact quote, but believe me, IT WAS DARN CLOSE):

" How do you feel about Casper Weinberger being indited and possibly having to go to prison for something he is covering up to save you from possible impeachment????".....and then SHOVING the microphone about 1/2" from his mouth as the camera guy quickly zoomed in for a "head shot" of George, as she anxiously waited for the "reply".

George and Barbara were both WAY too kind in handling her TOTAL lack of professionalism and rudeness.

I haven't seen 2 hours TOTAL of the Today since.....and to this day, if I ever DID meet her face to face by accident someday....well let me just say that you would probably see the replay NUMEROUS times on ANY MSM news show for AT LEAST a week.....

It was something, all right. It's amazing how she was able to turn that one event into fame and stardom.

Another P-poor job by the White House Press Secretary's office. My wife watches ABC to get the weather and traffic updates, so I suffer through GMA. Yellin is shrill little she-demon who is brought in to announce the latest decline in the President's poll numbers, our imminent defeat in Iraq, or any other negative news that may impact on the Bush Administration. Apparently Mr. Bush isn't the only one who doesn't watch the network news, but someone should.

Democrats can never stop being Democrats.
Isn't it abundantly obviously that these people are actually enemies and not merely dissidents?

The WH should start lifting the press credentials from reporters who engage in ambush journalism.
