Last night, FOX News host Sean Hannity looked at Daren Briscoe, a Newsweek correspondent who just left the magazine to work at the Obama White House. Briscoe’s new title is Deputy Associate Director of Public Affairs for the Office of National Drug Control Policy.

And now he is being rewarded for supressing Obama truths and creating Obama fluff. Obama is creating commie media, soon to replace all the media that is forced out of business.
