Regime Obama.
The most open regime in American history?
The most transparent regime in American history?
Ummmmm......"Experts" from The New York Times, USA Today and even the darling network of the left, CBS, don't seem to think so!
USA Today 8217 s Susan Page Obama administration most 8216 dangerous 8217 to media in history - The Washington Post
Excerpts in italic below:
At some point, a compendium of condemnations against the Obama administrationâs record of media transparency (actually, opacity) must be assembled. Notable quotations in this vein come from former New York Times executive editor Jill Abramson, who said, âIt is the most secretive White House that I have ever been involved in coveringâ; New York Times reporter James Risen, who said, âI think Obama hates the pressâ; and CBS Newsâs Bob Schieffer, who said, âThis administration exercises more control than George W. Bushâs did, and his before that.â
USA Today Washington Bureau Chief Susan Page has added a sharper edge to this set of knives. Speaking Saturday at a White House Correspondentsâ Association (WHCA) seminar, Page called the current White House not only âmore restrictiveâ but also âmore dangerousâ to the press than any other in history, a clear reference to the Obama administrationâs leak investigations and its naming of Fox Newsâs James Rosen as a possible âco-conspiratorâ in a violation of the Espionage Act.
