From Media Bistro yesterday, regarding the new press room for the white house press corpse:
CNN Gets A Front Row Seat
> Earlier: CNN & Fox Want Front Row Seats...
And the winner is: CNN.
"The White House Correspondents' Association met today to review plans for the renovated West Wing Briefing Room and the seating assignments," a memo said on Friday.
"As a board, we decided to move CNN to the first row. This decision was based on CNN's 27 years of covering The White House, as well as the resources it brings to the in-town and travel pool, and its daily presence at the briefings. In addition, the board agreed to honor a previous commitment by our association to maintain Helen Thomas' seat in the first row..."
Typical -- the board choses the liberal CNN over the balanced FNC, even though FNC is the number one cable network.
That does not mean that Tony has to even respond to those Nazi's from CNN. One day soon it will be a "weekend at Helen's" right in front of our eyes in the Press room. Who will let anyone know? maybe they will just have her stuffed and placed there forever. I would hate to be that Taxidermist.......
