Video: Helen Thomas and Chip Reid get testy with Gibbs over Obama’s town hall
ByI did a quick post about this yesterday, here’s the video.
CNS News caught up with Helen Thomas after the meeting (via Townhall) and she had more to say on the subject of President Obama’s handling of the press.
“Nixon didn’t try to do that,” Thomas said. “They couldn’t control (the media). They didn’t try.”
“What the hell do they think we are, puppets?” Thomas said. “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,” she said. “It’s blatant. They don’t give a damn if you know it or not. They ought to be hanging their heads in shame.”
Ouch! Helen Thomas thinks Obama’s worse than Nixon! Too bad nobody listens to her.

People hear Helen, but the people in charge simply do not care. They have bought out the media and like any lapdog, they expect it to bark when told. I am not sure when people became so complacent about the deliberate erosion of our freedom of speech, but along with newspaper bailouts, network news informercials and propaganda masqerading as public forums-we don’t have fair access to the whole story.
THEY’LL GET OVER IT. THEY STILL LOVE THE SOB
Well, there’s another first. I NEVER thought I’d want to give Helen Thomas a big fat hug.

Worse than Nixon?
Did she actually say that?
Let’s just hope it’s not too late to avoid meltdown.
I wonder if she’ll attend a Tea Party.
