The latest absurdity coming from the Mainstream Media. I think most reporters are egomaniacs, but the ones working in the White House hail from an entirely different crop of arrogance. My favorite poster child for this syndrome: Helen Thomas. Hell hath no fury like Helen toward a Republican administration.
These reporters ask the most ridiculous questions. It's as though they went to journalism elementary school and stopped there. Just read the full story of the White House Press Briefing to see what I mean. It's amazing that these people are elevated to such positions while brilliant authors and professors I know live quite humbly. That's mostly because nobody understands those really big words they use.
Favorite highlight coming from a reporter to Mr. McClellan: "And do you think somebody can investigate if it really happened at the base, and who told Newsweek? Because somebody wrote a story."
Brilliant.
