Reporter: WH Press Secretary Gets Questions from Reporters Before Press Briefing It's just a show. Daniel Halper March 20, 2014 8:43 AM
A CBS reporter from Arizona reveals that President Obama's press secretary, Jay Carney, receives questions from the press in advance of his daily press briefing. In fact, she says, the reporters often receive the answers in advance of the briefing, too.
According to the reporter, Jay Carney told her this yesterday at the White House:
"It was a very busy day. We started here shortly after 8 o'clock with a coffee with press secretary Jay Carney inside his office in the West Wing," says the reporter.
"And this was the off-the-record so we were able to ask him all about some of the preparation that he does on a regular basis for talking to the press in his daily press briefings. He showed us a very long list of items that he has to be well versed on every single day.
"And then he also mentioned that a lot of times, unless it's something breaking, the questions that the reporters actually ask -- the correspondents -- they are provided to him in advance. So then he knows what he's going to be answering and sometimes those correspondents and reporters also have those answers printed in front of them, because of course it helps when they're producing their reports for later on. So that was very interesting."
The reporter, from a local CBS Arizona affiliate, interviewed President Obama yesterday.
Lol!
This has been going on for over five years, yet only now is a reporter spilling the beans? What changed?
CAn you imagine the absolute outrage if it were a Republican doing this?.....................

Submit your questions in the comment section below and Catherine Anaya will share your questions and concerns with Obama this week.
The only good thing I can say about Carney is that he’s better than Josh Ernest. Never have I seen lying come so natural to anyone as it does with Ernest. He would make any Democrat politician proud.
Because tootsie in th WH is going to take down his own party with healthcare in the next election. Now he is a problem for hitlary.
And every other commie democrap.
So after they built up this empty chair they have to take him down.
I was wondering if it was her. She’s the Anchor babe of the Daily 10 PM news. A commie.
Anyone who thinks they get actual news from a WH press brief is a fool! It’s propaganda and lies.
Yep, a dog and carney show.
Leni
Control of the media is imperative for the success of autocracy.
Here’s the script the show starts in fifteen minutes.
Some things never change in the media.
in yet another article she is referred to only...as a local anchor
I suspect that someonne..fears for her life..
not that it would matter if the regime WANTS her identity
the carney is already in denial mode
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney denies TV reporter’s claim that he gets daily briefing questions IN ADVANCE
So a reporter had to be thrown to the Beast. Sounds plausible.
