White House press secretary Jen Psaki’s final briefing with reporters went off the rails Friday after one reporter repeatedly shouted a question about fair access in the room.

I'm going to spend my time with my family and forget all this crap. Game over new world order, you won. I'm going to go delete my user id, if the system does not let you...

Monday night, Dan Rather contradicted some of his journalistic peers who have said that the news media will have an effect on who wins the White House. "Neither CBS News nor any other news organization will decide who won or lost. You will with your vote," the anchor said at the close of his final "Evening News" broadcast before the election...... Rather's final statement in its entirety with annotations and links: So we're down now to the last few hours of a presidential election campaign that seems to have gone on forever, almost since the last on ended.
