Is The Press Starting to WAKE UP?

My hat is off to Helen Thomas and Chip Reid! Never thought I'd complement Helen Thomas but the ole hag seems to be a little disenchanted with the White House manipulating the Press Corp!

Hattie!

Helen Thomas and Chip Reid Challenge Obama Admin. On 'Controlled' Town Hall Meeting

White House spokesman Robert Gibbs and the Obama administration found the press corps slightly less friendly than they are used to yesterday, when NBC's Chip Reid asked why the questions for Wednesday’s town hall on healthcare were being selected beforehand.

Gibbs tried to dodge the issue, and asked for it to be asked after the town hall meeting in question, but then Helen Thomas became involved, saying, “We have never had that in the White House. I’m amazed that you people … call for openness and transparency.”

Reid and Thomas didn't let up for a second, especially Thomas.

To see the video, of the full exchange, Go Here Now.

Karl Rove opined on Fox News this morning that, to some extent, Gibbs had a point in saying that, since people are free to ask whatever questions they want, the president should be allowed to answer whichever questions he wants.

But Thomas didn't see it that way. After the press conference, she told CNS News that Obama's grip on the media is even greater than that of Richard Nixon.

"Nixon didn’t try to do that. They couldn’t control [the media]. They didn’t try that. What the hell do they think we are, puppets? They’re supposed to stay out of our business. They are our public servants. We pay them. I’m not saying there has never been managed news before, but this is carried to fare-thee-well - for the town halls, for the press conferences. It’s blatant. They don’t give a damn if you know it or not. They ought to be hanging their heads in shame."

Well, if Missy Helen didn't drool over the annointed one so much this past year, she might have seen what was coming! Let's see if the press continue to 'worship' BO in the coming days, weeks and year!

So Thomas thinks BO is managing the News!

She along with the rest of the old media participated in the charade all during the election process and now she just realized this guy is a lying cheater and is manipulating the news!!!

When will the rest of the Obama zombie voters wake up?
