In fairness, the reporter was a student. Still, he needs to grow some balls.

Matt Sablan म्हणाले...

A beautiful piece for my "If Bush Had Done It" collection.

JAL म्हणाले...

Sitting in a non- press section gave him a (photographic?) advantage?

Hey Biden Babe -- EVERYONE IN AMERICA carries a camera nowadays.

Get used to it.

Buy a copy of Army of Davids.

Nonapod म्हणाले...

To be fair, being a Biden Staffer has to be up there in terms of high stress jobs... constantly wondering what will tumble out of that buffoon's word hole. You can imagine that someone under that kind of pressure my be like "DELETE THAT NOW!"

The reporter has a bright future on the White House best.

BarrySanders20 म्हणाले...


What a corageous lot those Reporter-Americans are. Providing daily examples of how Obama & Co. love to force people to do things, and then how to comply.

Speak troof to power!

अनामित म्हणाले...

Beat.

Stupid iPhone.

Drago म्हणाले...

The student reporter is performing precisely how he is being taught: Cater to the whims of any/all democrats and be sure to accurately repeat, verbatim, whatever that dem says in your articles/reports.

As would befit a proper stenographer.

Had this been a republican, however, a very different set of rules would be applied.

AllenS म्हणाले...

This administration demands compliance from media and Hollywood.

Bob Boyd म्हणाले...

I hope the kid feels "sheepish".

edutcher म्हणाले...

Sounds like the kid needs a quick course in conlaw.

Oh, Madame La Professeure...

KCFleming म्हणाले...

When sycophants have shame, though transient.

Eric the Fruit Bat म्हणाले...

I'd have some respect for Biden had he gone full-Barzini and yanked the film out of the camera and then crumpled it up.

tiger म्हणाले...

I agree with the all the above.

traditionalguy म्हणाले...

"Things will not go well with you if you mess with Mother Biden." Those threats are coming out of DC faster as the civilian Agencies are laying up 40 cal. wad-cutter ammo like they will soon be at war inside the USA...with terrorists of course. But why do I suspect that the terrorists are like that reporter?

MadisonMan म्हणाले...

They apologized because they were caught.

MadisonMan म्हणाले...

So Dana Rosenzweig is pro-censorship, and thinks she rules the world.

Why hasn't she resigned? Am I paying the salary of someone is so vividly anti-American?

MadisonMan म्हणाले...

And I do hope that Barr sues. Hit her where it hurts.

Curious George म्हणाले...

"This isn’t the first time Biden’s office has taken a heavy hand to the press. After the vice president made a remark during the presidential campaign that Republicans would put voters “back in chains,”"

Hell, small wonder the media would comply with this request. They carry the admins water without asking, above is just another example.

Biden did not say that the GOP would put "voters" back in chains, he meant African-Americans, or as easterner like Biden say "darkies".

Brennan म्हणाले...

At least he didn't end up in a closet.

I Have Misplaced My Pants म्हणाले...

Geesh, what a little pansy. Didn't the reporter ever learn to say, "Make me!" or "You and what army?!"

damikesc म्हणाले...

A beautiful piece for my "If Bush Had Done It" collection.

Didn't this administration once have a reporter locked in a closet for several hours?

Why would anybody respect a press that acts more like a battered spouse than a check on the executive?

Larry J म्हणाले...

Just goes to show how the "reporters" will continue their media blowjob of the Obama administration at all costs.

अनामित म्हणाले...

Heck, he should thank his lucky stars that they didn't lock him in the utility closet to take pictures of brooms and mops.

Guimo म्हणाले...

When Biden goes over to the pope's first Mass as Zerobama's representative, he will not be allowed to take Communion, per most recent edict of Francis I.

garage mahal म्हणाले...

So Dana Rosenzweig is pro-censorship, and thinks she rules the world.

This stuff happens almost every day in the Capitol. Weirdly, that never seems to bother you.

rcommal म्हणाले...

So, garage mahal, is what Dana did wrong or not?

Unknown म्हणाले...

AllenS said, "This administration demands compliance from media and Hollywood."

I wouldn't mind that so much; it's what the administration demands from the rest of us that worries me.

Matt Sablan म्हणाले...

"This stuff happens almost every day in the Capitol. Weirdly, that never seems to bother you."

Biden's peopel are making reporters delete their videos all the way in the Capitol? His reach truly is long.

Amartel म्हणाले...

The hilarious part of this is that the reporter is from U. of Maryland's in-house paper, Capital News Service. Presumably, part of the university's j-school. He just assumed he'd "violated a protocol" and willingly allowed Biden's enforcers to delete his photos. For violating a protocol.
Freedom of the Press! To be simpering, cowering lapdogs. Yay.

Bob_R म्हणाले...

I think the "I'm a reporter" part of Reynolds' suggested response is unnecessary.

Writ Small म्हणाले...

Jeremy Barr, a reporter with the University of Maryland’s Capital News Service, was seated in a non-press section for the event, at which the vice president announced an anti-domestic violence initiative.

I think there's a video where members of the media can learn to apply make-up to hide the bruises.

garage mahal म्हणाले...

So, garage mahal, is what Dana did wrong or not?

Yes.

अनामित म्हणाले...

"So, garage mahal, is what Dana did wrong or not?

Yes."

That giant sucking sound was garage pulling his head out of his ass.

edutcher म्हणाले...

Remember, Shotgun Joe will be our Representative at the installation of the new Pope.

What could go wrong?

Brennan म्हणाले...

New rule for Biden press pool. If you are within reach of his hair plugs then your materials can be confiscated and deleted.

Maintain safe distance. Safety not guaranteed.

Astro म्हणाले...

Bad dog! No cookie.

Colonel Angus म्हणाले...

Typical of our political class. Piss off would have been my response to her.

Amartel म्हणाले...

Freedom of the Press.
To obey orders from the government.

Freedom of the Press.
To repeat things other people say.
Unless they're told not to.
In which case
Not to repeat things other people say.

MadisonMan म्हणाले...

"So, garage mahal, is what Dana did wrong or not?

Yes."



Logically, the answer to any questions that asks Is something Wrong or Not is always yes, because it is always Wrong or it is Not Wrong.

Was the perpetrator a man or a woman? Yes.

Was the sky clear or cloudy? Yes.

Are we going to get rain or snow? Yes.

Baron Zemo म्हणाले...

If the Pope arranges to deny communion to Clueless Joe Biden... well I will have to see it happen first.

I hope and pray that he does but I just don't see it.

Uncle Pavian म्हणाले...

I like the part about “Rockville is not a third-world country where police-state style media censorship is expected.”
It is now.

Balfegor म्हणाले...

I'd have some respect for Biden had he gone full-Barzini and yanked the film out of the camera and then crumpled it up.

I think of it as going Mark Latham. The man had terrible rage problems.

अनामित म्हणाले...

Francis: here, put this on your tongue...
Joe: I prefer toasted whole wheat.

अनामित म्हणाले...

I'm surprised there wasn't some acceptable slapping (to Biden) going on.

Methadras म्हणाले...

wow, talk about government suppression.

Matt म्हणाले...

In the Bush White House:

The White House broke with tradition Wednesday night and refused to let photojournalists shoot still pictures of the president at the podium after his prime-time address on the Iraq war.

Happens in all White Houses. Doesn't make it right but also not news.

rcommal म्हणाले...

MadisonMan: I stand reprimanded. But I'm not going to ask the question again.

; )

David म्हणाले...

Matt, it's news precisely because it happens all the time and nobody does anything about it. The Maryland J school dean decided not to roll over and play dead. Good for her. And because of her it's news.

rcommal म्हणाले...

MadisonMan:

Are we going to get rain or snow? Yes.

However, I don't think this example works.

RobertVanDame म्हणाले...

A better response would be "F*** off, I'm an American."

john म्हणाले...

Biden has a 10 hour plane ride to Rome. Plenty of time to think up some great one-line zingers. He cracks me up.

Kirk Parker म्हणाले...

MadMan,

"Am I paying the salary of someone is so vividly anti-American? "

Please tell me this is not a new revelation to you.

Kirk Parker म्हणाले...

Bob_R @ 1:57pm,

Not just "unnecessary", but downright wrong.

And I'd really appreciate if if the rest of you would stop taking your lead from pansy Reynolds--quit leaving off the "and die" part.

pm317 म्हणाले...

Good on the Dean. Shame on Biden and his fucking staff.

1389 म्हणाले...

Pope Francis I versus Joe Biden...get out the popcorn (no joke)!.

knocko म्हणाले...

This graduate school cubby gave up when Biden's flack spoke sternly to him. Jimmy Olsen would have held onto his brownie for dear life.

Bob_R म्हणाले...

Kirk Parker's addition is good, but Robert Van Dame's is better.

अनामित म्हणाले...

It is child's play to undelete erased photos on digital memory cards. If this so called journalist doesn't do so and publish them, he is a coward and a fellator of Democratic thugs.

Here is one of the most popular undelete products:

"Fuck off Im a reporter"

No, no and no.

The correct response would have been "Fuck off I'm a citizen

John Henry

Cincinnatus म्हणाले...

It is really disappointing that Obama / Biden's thug staffers get away with this bullying.

Kirk Parker म्हणाले...

Bob_R, Robert, John H:

I see we're all on the same page. :-)

Bryan C म्हणाले...

One version of the story took pains to describe our simpering student stenographer as "credentialed". WTF any "credentials" have to do with taking pictures of your elected representatives in a public event was not explained.
