Midknight Review -- new and revised: Move over NY Times. You are no longer "special" to much of anyone

Michael M. Grynbaum / New York Times:

White House Bars Times and 2 Other News Outlets From Briefing — WASHINGTON — Journalists from The New York Times and two other news organizations were prohibited from attending a briefing by President Trump's press secretary on Friday, a highly unusual breach of relations between the White House and its press corps.

Notes: What is "highly unusual" in all this is the notion that the Times was barred from anything. Turns out that this was an impromptu presser in a side room at the White House, following the President's CPAC speech on Friday. Room was limited and the NY Times, Politico, and CNN (among others) were not invited, but, were given transcripts and video's of the presser. These folks are just angry that they are no longer being treated special. That's it.

BTW, the Wa/Post, FoxNews, Breitbart, ABC, CBS, NBC, One America News Network, and the Washington Examiner were included. Plenty of liberal news representation in that grouping. Get over yourselves. You lost the election. Pay back is a bitch, such as it is.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
