These newspapers have endorsed McCain and despite the fact that their reporters have long covered the campaign, they are being summarily tossed overboard to make room for other news organizations. One can surmise that news organizations who have endorsed Obama will obtain the coveted sets aboard his plane.
Certainly this is well within the right of the Obama campaign but may well be a harbinger of news coverage in the future. Those that criticize will not be afforded the opportunity to cover an event from the inside.
The Washington Times was irritated to say the least, that their reporter was tossed. The Dallas Morning News had a much different approach and were generally understanding, almost apologetic. There was no announcement in the New York Post as of noon today. It is difficult to understand these two almost opposite comments about reporters being tossed. One can conjure up many reasons, but perhaps any conclusion is best left to the reader.

Post a CommentFreedom of Speech will be a rare thing under Obama.
Some of the seats were given to Ebony and Essence magazine. Who knew that a monthly magazine was so important in the reporting of a presidential race? Obama talks about becoming color blind, but I didn't see them offering seats to Vogue or GQ.
Thanks for helping me spread the word...funny, we haven't seen this story in the "mainstream" news outlets.
Another example of supressing Freedom by the Obama camp..Good work Clak as always..On another article on AC a person stated they didn't know what I was talking about when I mentioned Obama's anti-Freedom policies and affiliations..he claimed I was baseless and fear merchanting..LOL...ahh..keep up the good work brother perhaps the willfully blind will one day see..
Keep posing these questions Clark. Especially now that the few objective voices in the mainstream media are being shut out. Seems to me I've seen this treatment of the press before, eery, scary and disturbing but not in the fun way I'm suppose to feel on Halloween. Who is this man behind the Obama mask?
