Rochard is exaggerating.
But it IS funny that CNN and the New York Times weren't allowed to attend the "Gaggle".
I'll fill in any of you who are like Rochard and don't do any real digging but just listen to the fake news that's being shoveled out.
CNN is still going to be able to be at every White House Press Conference. Just like always.
BUT...the White House press secretary always has "unofficial" get-togethers called a "Gaggle" as well.
In the "Gaggle" a press pool is formed and that pool is used to get the info out to the rest of the media.
It's basically a daily discussion.
The press secretary decided to EXPAND the pool to include a few more people than the normal one or two people allowed to attend.
CNN and the New York Times were not invited and tried to CRASH the "gaggle" with no clearance.
They were turned away.
That is the REAL story.
Not the stupid shit that CNN has on their front page and that Rochard is repeating like a parrot.
You would think by now that Rochard would simply have researched this.
Hell, the CNN story on it even tells you exactly what I just wrote. lol
All Rochard had to do was just read the story and not just the headline.
