Listen to liberal media whine about the Obama administration's relationship to the press. Nobody should have an ounce of sympathy for them however because they allowed themselves to be used in this way. If they would have just done their jobs in the first place we wouldn't be living through this nightmare.

Reporter Bob Franken Blasts Obama on MSNBC: ‘Most Hostile’ to Press ‘in U.S. History’ (http://www.mediaite.com/tv/reporter-bob-franken-blasts-obama-on-msnbc-most-hostile-to-press-in-u-s-history/)
“The reason I say most hostile is because of the Justice Department moves that they’ve made against the press,” Franken continued. “Obviously, they have a contempt for the journalistic process.”
Photojournalists Protest White House’s Aggressive, ‘Stalinist’ Image-Making of Obama (http://www.mediaite.com/online/photojournalists-protest-white-houses-aggressive-stalinist-image-making-of-obama/)
According to a damning report from National Journal Editorial Director Ron Fournier, photojournalists are mounting an effort to push back against President Barack Obama’s heavy-handed effort to safeguard the president’s image by blocking independent photographers from taking pictures of him. One reporter even compared this White House to the old Soviet style of providing approved photographers with the best images of the president.
“Obama’s image-makers are taking advantage of new technologies that democratized the media, subverting independent news organizations that hold the president accountable,” Fournier wrote after relating an anecdote of a New York Times reporter who accused the White House of behaving like the Russian news agency ITAR-TASS.
