    Wasn’t freedom of speech a huge deal with these guys?.. Now its controlled speech?.. How is this legal? How is this real?

      Nobody is stopping AP from reporting the news. What they did was completely legal. Not sure why WHCA thinks they have monopoly power. They don’t.

        What? I mean, how can a president choose what questions or choose only favorable news outlets? I understand that in America it’s red against blue with the news, but this just doesn’t make sense to me. Neither does the fact that he can choose like this. It’s very strange to begin with.
