Restricting news conferences to working journalists?

Yeah, the journalists there should lie to him and then text him a picture of their cock.

 

So would not tweeting pictures of your johnson to constituents.

If you hate clowns, don't inspire a circus.

 

I think it's a bad idea. However, if I'm there to cover an event I'd probably feel differently if hecklers make it tougher to do my job.

 

Let's be honest. How often does it happen?

Did hecklers hurt anything today? He wasn't taking questions.

 

Personally, I'd like to be at some of these Monday college football ass-grabs with a few guys in the back shouting "Houston Nutt! You suck!"

 

The heckling made it harder to hear what Weiner was saying. It was another example of there still being plenty of room for improvement in this nation.

 

Who are the people who shout that at Houston Nutt news conferences/media availabilities?

 

FWIW (which isn't much), your stance on credentialing people at press conferences has evolved in the last five years:

Not critcizing, just thought it was funny that of the few posts you've made here, two of your threads come in conflict a bit.

 

He held the event in a public place.

 

So is a little league baseball game, but you would get in trouble, and kicked out, if you started cussing at the top of your lungs on the sidelines.

 

simply as a viewer with no stake in any of this, the heckling pissed me off. i tuned in only to hear what this guy had to say and how he said it. the heckling interfered with that. if i was a reporter at the event i would've been darn pissed off.

weiner called a presser to announce his resignation. we all knew he wouldn't be taking any questions. some folks even wondered beforehand why he had called a presser when no questions were allowed; he couldli've just released a letter of resignation, gone into hiding, worked on reconstructing his marriage and devising the strategy for his future.

when crap like this goes down, it pisses me off 'cause i'd think it just encourages future figures who call pressers to go the 'released statement' route. why expose yourself (no pun) to this kind of b.s. when you don't have to?

 

Sweet. How about instead of making me sit through a 4:21 second speech, you just, you know, tell me what happened since you obviously saw it.
