WASHINGTON (AP) — A reporter from a conservative-leaning website is the only media representative accompanying Secretary of State Rex Tillerson on his trip to Asia this week.

The website, the Independent Journal Review, said late Tuesday that IJR reporter Erin McPike is the lone journalist traveling with Tillerson on his tour to Japan, South Korea and China. The State Department confirmed the account. The trip is taking place amid escalating tensions with North Korea.

Even if they were there, what real news value-added would the LSM provide?

The State Department press briefing was hilarious. All the snowflakes could talk about was why some “conservative” got to ride on Tillerson’s plane and they weren’t. Winning!! Never gets old.

The title is a lie... other reporters are there, they just didn't get to travel on the same plane with Tillerson.

At last..., some Cabinet Officials who realize that they have to endure snarling dogs biting at their heels but they don't have to feed and transport them! About damn time!

That’s good news....

Hopefully, this fellow sent a selfie showing all of the empty seats on the plane.

That’s the kind of unfounded speculation liberals do. It is an affront to both parties.

Honestly, I look forward to reading her reports. It would be interesting to know more about how Tillerson works.
