Members of the White House having secret off the record meetings with members of the news media

Based on the medias love affair with President Obama, this information is not surprising. Many news outlets are acting as Obama's biggest supporters. They propaganda the points he wants covered and ignore any negative news.
We already knew Rahm Emanuel has daily secret phone calls with the media. The Washington Post reports:
Last Tuesday evening, Rahm Emanuel quietly slipped into an eighth-floor office at the Watergate.

As white-jacketed waiters poured red and white wine and served a three-course salmon and risotto dinner, the White House chief of staff spent two hours chatting with some of Washington's top journalists -- excusing himself to take a call from President Obama and another from Hillary Clinton.

As the journalists hurled questions and argued among themselves, Emanuel said: "This feels a lot like a Jewish family dinner."

    Oh My God!

    You're telling me a politician works the media?


    I am shocked and outraged that this happens BG. The Bush White House would most certainly never deliver talking points to any media outlets. This is facism my friend. Pure and simple.

    No doubt the Bush administration tried to work the media, but I don't know of any secret dinners they where they got an invitation. Are you implying Obama is being covered by the Media the same way Bush was? There are plenty of statistics and studies to debunk that idea.
