Former Obama spokesman Tommy Vietor emails:
The White House Correspondents Association has to be ready to respond much more forcefully if Trump continues to ignore long-standing traditions of press access. That’s especially true for the five network bureau chiefs who hold most of the power.
I’d like to see them publicly detail their expectations as well as the potential repercussions if those demands continue to be ignored.
This is too important, and the Trump campaign learned all the wrong lessons during the campaign when they faced no penalty for blacklisting reporters.” (link)
“the Trump campaign learned all the wrong lessons during the campaign when they faced no penalty for blacklisting reporters.”
Hahah, poor Tommy forgot that the press are all competitors, not collaborators. If one press outlet gets blacklisted, it’s only good for business for the rest of them, so why would they do anything?
The “potential repercussions” have already begun, idiots. You are all going the way of he dinosaurs. Buh bye!!! Detestable Fools.
