The CBS eye just blinked. We award the Gunwalker Journalist Punk of the Week Award to . . .



Chip Reid of CBS, who asked no questions at the Obama presser about the Project Gunwalker scandal, which his own network is doing such a great job of exposing. Worried about being disinvited to the cocktail parties, Chip?

LATER: David's take.

Today and this weekend I'll cut them some slack.

There is a rather large story breaking over in Japan.

By next week they should be back on it.

Obviously the anointed one already had a list of the people whose questions he was going to field, an the order in which he intended to call for their questions, and already knew what the questions would be. I noticed that he hadn’t been thoroughly briefed as to where the individuals would be seated. He was calling names with no idea of where in the room that person was located.

And, No. Not a single ball in the room.

whereas Ace points out:
"My Hero: Chip Reid confronts him with an old quote in which Obama said that if a tyrant was massacring civilians, the US would be morally obligated to intervene."

You can dispute his choice of priorities (and even then it's not surprising, foreign death and dismemberment always sells better than local), but implying he's a coward is blatantly untrue and unfair.
