. . .in my 10-plus years at the White House, rarely have I sensed such a level of anger, which is wide and deep, among members over White House practices and attitude toward the press.”

Wow; the Media having a 'tea Party!

(You might think that this media could understand better, the feelings of the 'rest of the citizenry' who are smacked in the head; daily, with Obama arrogance and smugness; and worse, sick 'will to power'.

Maybe this might bring it home, But I doubt it. . .)

The whitehouse press corpse is nothing but a bunch of dc residents/VA/WVA who travel in the whitehouse press corpse cliche gather and travel only with themselves. I doubt any of them know what the citiizens think, want, or “feel”. They are among the elitist of the elite. Watch the Sam Donaldsons, Cookie Roberts, and one can see the whitehouse press corpse is even snootier than these snoots.

To the media:

I suggest you start ignoring him, (as much as possible), and start talking to the American people; Narcissists hate that.

Press him on his lack re: pressers; Question him in detail, reminding him of his opposite stances previously. Call him out on not taking responsibilty and blaming A, B or C.

Let him know you didn’t go to J school to be puppets. Lastly, let him know you made him, you can break him.

Go back and dig on him, flip the script and show him what journalism means. It holds him and his accountable to the people.

Make the profession what it was meant to be, before it became a mouthpiece and a restriction on all of our first amendment rights.

Put on black armbands and conjure up the spirits of past newsmen, big town or small, who beat the concrete, made calls, double sourced, checked documents (a lot easier for you now, minus the scrubbing), check your own past archives (also how many have been edited or went missing), go to Chicago, California, Columbia, Harvard, etc., talk to the people.

Do not be afraid, this is about truth and uncovering facts.

No shame in correcting wrongs.
The world waits for you.
