For once, the MSM found their spines.
The administration contacted the White House pool; a five network rotation that has for decades shared the cost and duties of daily coverage of the presidency, and to which Fox News has belonged since 1997, and made available for round robin interviews with the executive pay czar, Ken Feinberg. But the administration specified that all members of the pool were welcome except Fox News. The Washington bureau chiefs of the five TV news networks consulted and decided that none of them would interview Feinberg unless Fox was included. And the administration relented making Feinberg available to all five pool members and Bloomberg T.V.

This is just one little lover’s spat with Obama. Tomorrow, they’ll show up at the Oval Office with flowers, a box of chocolates, and a sheepish grin.
