Hot Air » Blog Archive » Good news: White House launches its own news network: "What could go wrong? Seriously, Tapper’s being a tiny bit paranoid about this in my opinion, but don’t let me stand in the way of a good hand-wringing about Obama starting his own nascent propaganda bureau. Besides, JT’s honest enough to wink at how much the media slobbers over The One:"

Read the TV pool report: “Your Pool was not allowed to go over and shoot POTUS with the team shooting hoops. We protested loudly.”

Now we know why: Obama White House officials decided to do their own media report on the visit, complete with cuts, interviews, and chyrons identifying who’s speaking…

Do Obama White House officials think their media coverage isn’t flattering enough?

Is the goal to ultimately replace the pesky photographers who film what they want to and not what they’re told to (not to mention the annoying reporters who ask uncomfortable questions about, say, detainee policy and bank bailouts)?

If that’s the goal, it’s a monster scandal. But, er, this isn’t exactly the smoking gun that proves it. All things considered, for sheer probative news value, this clip falls short of even the Barney video Christmas card. Just further proof of how right — and awesomeJames Harrison is.




Hitler has his own propaganda minister as well. Apparently Obama does not want anything negative out there about himself so he is now getting into the television and reporting business as well.

We will have no chance to find out what is happening with this one sided television that allows access on it's own terms.
