Eric Bolling: Wussies! Every Last One of You…(Liberal Media)

featured-imgBy Eric Bolling

Imagine this folks... A journalist's big moment... Finally arrives... All the tests... All the research... All the homework… The years in journalism school...

And there you are… You find yourself face to face with the President of the United States: The Government is closed; we’re on the verge of economic catastrophe, and you have 5 minutes and a chance to ask the President whatever you want… C’mon reach back… Clocks ticking, Games on the line, Go deep…

For Diana Williams of ABC News…The moment went like this:
“My daughter asked me to ask you, what is the coolest thing about being President?”

Wow hard hitting journalism Diana!  I didn’t go to journalism school but allow me to offer you a tip: Turn on FOX News before the next time you have the Commander in Chief one on one… Jot down the questions we are asking and topics we are debating… But don’t expect to see President Obama answering from a FOX studio... He knows I wouldn’t ask him how “Cool it is to be President” with my time…Nor would any of my colleagues, I assure you.

Then there’s my old Twitter adversary Tommy Christopher. Tommy blogs for Mediaite, A media watch blog... I  love Mediaite… It’s a great media blog… But this week, the little blogger takes the award for dumbest question of the year... At the White House Press Briefing Tommy asked Jay Carney:

Is there a chance the President would be willing to delay ObamaCare for a year if Republicans would agree to delay heart attacks for a year?” Tommy… Dude... What kind of a jackass comment was that?

US Senate Set To Define 'Journalist'

A Senate panel on Thursday approved a measure defining a journalist, which had been an obstacle to broader media shield legislation designed to protect reporters and the news media from having to reveal their sources.

The Judiciary Committee's action cleared the way for approval of legislation prompted by the disclosure earlier this year that the Justice Department had secretly subpoenaed almost two months of telephone records for 21 phone lines used by reporters and editors for The Associated Press and secretly used a warrant to obtain some emails of a Fox News journalist. The subpoenas grew out of investigations into leaks of classified information to the news organizations.

The AP received no advance warning of the subpoena.

The vote was 13-5 for a compromise defining a "covered journalist" as an employee, independent contractor or agent of an entity that disseminates news or information. The individual would have been employed for one year within the last 20 or three months within the last five years.
