National Press Club bans reporters for tough questions?

The National Press Club is a private club for journalists and communications professionals. The 100 year old institution hosts thousands of events each year where political leaders make themselves available to the press. Their mission is to be the world's leading professional organization for journalists, but is The National Press club censoring the press? Sam Husseini, communications director for the Institute of Public Accuracy, was banned from The National Press Club and explains why.

Elitist organization, not worth it's weight in excrement.

If he can't answer those fucking questions than who is supposed to

[weneedhelp]

Politicians=bought and paid for

"Journalists"=bought and paid for

Last vestige of freedom = Internet

Internet= Shut down by SOPA & PROTECT-IP

citizenry=docile sheep surrounded by wolves.

It's a matter of fact that a herd of sheep could defend itself against wolfes by standing together and using it's power in numbers, it's the inability of the sheep to think clearly and to acknowledge their own power which alows the numerous inferior wolfes to dominate their subjects.

Bhaaaa Bhaaaa.

@neosailor Ah, you should watch some of the Zeitgeist films. Especially the one called "Moving Forward".

@arc175 Capitalism is not the problem. Corporatism and "crapitalism" ie crony capitalism is a problem. Socialism is clearly a failed model. True unfettered capitalism is an activity associated with freedom. A willing buyer and a willing seller agree to an exchange. simple

We are at war. Is not truth the first casualty? As Dr Paul has said "Truth is treason in the empires of lies"

Not that long ago the US establishment blamed the USSR for silencing reporters.

As could have been predicted now they do it themselves in an exponential way.

Americans have 2 freedoms.

1) The freedom that Americans think they have.

2) The freedom that Americans actually have
