Kaitlan Collins responded to the backlash shed received over the past week in an appearance on Fox News Sunday broadcast of Media Buzz.
Host Howie Kurtz first posed to The Daily Callers White House correspondent that the establishment media said the President is trying to avoid tough questions by not calling on a major national newspaper or broadcast group.

That was another question I got after my question, Collins responded. Did the White House tell you what to ask?
I cant decide if its offensive or laughable because they are probably talking to the White House more than I am.
No, I dont think he should only call on conservative outlets I think he should call on the whole room but I dont think there was this hand-wringing over who the president was calling on when Barack Obama refused to call on Fox News and only called on left-leaning outlets, she continued. No one was going on TV saying the fix was in then. Its just because its a conservative outlet, and theyre not used to The Daily Caller getting a question.
Theyre offended because the question they wanted answered didnt get asked, the Alabama native stated. I wasnt aware that we were all supposed to go in there and ask the same question.
Whats the point of me being here if Im going to ask the same question as Jim Acosta or Hallie Jackson?

Well that would be a first, eh?
The condescension. These bozos are knocking President Trump for asking a black woman if she wants to set up a meeting with Black Caucus. Then go out and ask a woman why she didn’t ask what they wanted. And insulting her by asking if the WH gave her the question. Which, as you imply is doubly nuts since so many of the press and dems colluded with the Hillary campaign and never hit out at Obama.
I would say after the latest contentious press conference that DJT isn’t afraid to take on any of these dopes.
Resign then.
These guys have been conditioned to believe that Conservatives don’t fight back.....they have awakened a sleeping giant and are now in shock.
