I remember a few years back, John Stossell of ABC, did a report on this very topic. He was interviewing Babbitt( I think) Sec of Interior under Clinton. Stossell was asking about a few billion dollars that couldn't be accounted for in his Dept. Babbitt got all huffy and took off his mike and ended the interview. Same ole, same ole.

But when Stossel arranged to interview then-Interior Secretary Bruce Babbitt about the Bureau’s poor performance, including the misallocation of more than $2 billion, the Secretary stalked out of the room rather than defend his department. "I’m gonna fire whoever scheduled this interview," Babbitt told Stossel.
