There isn't an estate with a bigger head in all the word,than that of the fourth estate.
Nobody voted them into do a damned thing. The press corp at the White House is there by the grace of the sitting President.
If the President wanted to he could bypass them for four years.
He could direct his press secretary to issue press releases to AP and other news outlets. He could then arrange to have local media people conduct interviews every few days, as he passed through their region.
I'm sick of the White House press corp. It's about time someone figuratively slapped them upside the head.
You either respect the President and his staff, or find a new line of work.
