Christine Blasey Ford’s lawyers have asked senators to limit the press who will be allowed in the room to cover Thursday’s hearing with her and Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and sought to dictate at least some of the outlets.
Coverage is one of a number of issues Ms. Blasey Ford’s lawyers are negotiating with Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee.
Michael Bromwich said in emails sent Tuesday afternoon that he was requesting access for three “robocams,” three specific wire services, photographers from the Associated Press, Reuters and one unspecified service, and a pool reporter for newspapers and magazines. In a follow-up email he specified that the robocams should be operated by “the CSPAN TV pool,” and said he also wanted space for a radio reporter.
Those emails were among several seen by The Washington Times detailing the tense negotiations between Ms. Blasey Ford’s team and committee staff.
While committees sometimes limit press based on space at hearings, and some witnesses have arranged to have their identities shielded, longtime Capitol Hill watchers struggled to think of precedent for a witness dictating terms of press coverage.
In Ms. Blasey Ford’s case she has received threats since she went public with her story, and her team has insisted the committee guarantee her safety as she testifies, as well as limited access to the hearing.

I read she chose to have it in open meeting, she had the option of a private one with Congress.
Talk indeed and be held accountable for what is said.
We shall soon see.
Yeah globalist swine would definitely have a repulsion to that speech. Like sunlight to a vampire.
Exactly.
Delusion
BTTT.
honestly no press wouldn’t be a bad thing
Never underestimate a psychiatrist’s ability to tell lies with aplomb.
What makes the most sense was Feinstein doing a private questioning back in July when she got the letter. But that was obviously not the intent all along.
“In Ms. Blasey Ford’s case she has received threats since she went public with her story”
And the Kavanaugh family — INCLUDING CHILDREN — has received threats since Ford went public with her story. Don’t they count for anything? Boy, she dug a deep hole with her lies; now she’s going to have some uncomfortable times ahead.
Do we know anything about the age of her children?
I think the Kavanaugh girls are around 10 and 12-13.
- don’t forget the tears!
a whole lot of tears.
So she wants to limit press coverage to the propaganda outlets that want the nomination to fail. The same ones that go out of there way everyday to smear Kavanaugh. I heard ABC news the on the radio the other day and it was insane. They were reporting every democrat allegation as if it was proven fact. No thanks.
F*** the America hating Chicom spy hag Fineswine too.
Do we know how old Fords kids are?
Not with a top flight lawyer skewing every lie. I hope she shows but I don’t think she will.

But these teachers are not used to being challenged, here she will be challenged big time.
