New York Times reporter James Risen called the Obama administration “the greatest enemy of press freedom that we have encountered in at least a generation”, stating that he seeks total control the flow of information and those who don’t acquiesce “will be punished.”
This is a Marxist takeover. The control of the media, and therefore the mind, is a necessity in a communist state.
New York Times reporter James Risen called the Obama administration “the greatest enemy of press freedom that we have encountered in at least a generation” on Friday, explaining that the White House seeks to control the flow of information and those who refuse to play along “will be punished.”
Poynter reports that Risen made the remarks while speaking at Sources and Secrets conference — a meeting of journalism , communication and government professionals held in New York City. The foreign policy reporter, who is currently fighting a fierce court battle with the federal government over his protection of a confidential source, warned that press freedom is under serious attack in today’s America.
In a speech kicking off the conference, Risen claimed that the Obama administration wants to “narrow the field of national security reporting” and “create a path for accepted reporting.” Those who stray from that path, he cautioned, “will be punished.”
Sad but true.
Are ya just NOW figuring this one out,,,, for real?
no $#%&!@*! just now figuring that out are ya!
So ignore him and light up social media with facts!
I wish all of the free press would all get together and then maybe they could come up with at least one set of (you know whats) to do something about him , tell the dam truth , it is your fault for protecting the whole dam bunch. Stand up for free America before it is no longer free
Hope it’s not to late for America to wake up. Nixon did much less, obama is an anti-christ.
He will not willingly give up power even though we will have an election!
Hitler and Obama are cut from the same cloth!!!
I think the comment, “I’ve discovered you’re a harlot”, is ambiguous, and we should proceed with caution, especially with the NAZI sign. I can take responsibility, to a degree, but I am not the only manager that can make decisions about press freedom. When a fly by night press official is at your door, then, sometimes, you have to answer the call, but Obama is under extreme pressure sometimes, and it is simply not fair to say he is incompetent, TOTALLY. Let’s share the pressure, grow up, and learn that press freedom takes some serious management diplomacy, and expert intelligence to deal with truths that at times are ambiguous and not what the general public expect. We must grab the bull by its horns and prevent press freedom from distorting the truth!
He is the greatest threat to AMERICAN CITIZENS! I bet that idiot reporter voted for obungler- at LEAST twice! @$$ holes in leftist media are finally figuring out what we’ve known all along…
