"USA Today on Monday joined a growing list of news agencies boycotting the use of official White House photography over what it says is an unprecedented lack of access to the president.
USA Today Deputy Director of Multimedia Andrew Scott said (http://www.poynter.org/latest-news/mediawire/231270/usa-today-wont-publish-handout-photos-from-white-house/) in a memo to staff the publication will not use “handout photos originating from the White House Press Office, except in very extraordinary circumstances.”USA Today is now one of more than 35 news agencies refusing to use White House photography."

I wonder how, exactly, the White House will maintain the pretense of transparency with the lapdogs in the media complaining of an "unprecedented lack of access."

January, 2009, President Obama:
"I will also hold myself as president to a new standard of openness .... Let me say it as simply as I can: Transparency and the rule of law will be the touchstones of this presidency."

November, 2013:
What? I never said transparency and the rule of law would be the touchstone of this presidency.

The story sounds newsworthy but I'm not sure how much truth is to it.

That's right, folks. Jillian admits that it isn't in the Daily Kos or NYT she won't believe it. And, Jillian, who never has links to her bizarre fantasies doesn't even know how to follow links when they're in the articles. I pulled them out for you, Jillian, and maybe you can find a six-year old to access them for you.

Jillian's LibWorld has very few media outlets and none qualify as news.

Oh yeah there patrickt everything the Right wings write are the gospel as told by Rush Limbaugh Lmao

You patrickt need to realize that you obsession with right wing flaming is comical not taken seriously.

Having said that, I read the same thing that the media right and left are pissed at the Whitehouses avoiding them and avoiding answering questions. So your thread is accurate this TIME even though It comes from a teaparty site.

Learn to use Google or Bing. They're both amazing.

Of course, the Obamabots in Libworld believe both, "If you like your insurance, you can keep your insurance, period," and "the touchstone of this administration will be transparency and the rule of law."

The old partisan two wrongs make a right defense.

Face it, common, your bud, jillian, doesn't express opinions she backs up. Her opinions are mere name calling flame baits, like "rightwingnutworld", a product of her imagination.


It's well-known this President is far from transparent as he promised.

You left out it could be true and a number of sources report it is true. As is typical of partisans you use mere innuendo--it could be false, with no information to support it.

And then you add others have done it, also without evidence. But to what purpose, to say two wrongs make a right?

Yours is the stuff of shallow propaganda.
