Maybe they're in a pissing contest with the IndiaDaily over who can supply the world with the most mundane, useless information possible.DiscoJason wrote:CNN sucks

Yep, the fiery citrus hit the nail on the head. When JFK was killed, there was nobody there from the press - they missed one of the biggest events of the century and had to rely on Zapruder's shaky home-movies and eye-witness accounts to document it.Incendiary Lemon wrote:Its a product of the Kennedy assasination - previously reporters did not follow the president unless they found something noteworthy on his schedule, now they're there no matter what.
Since then, there's been a deal within the major press corps to constantly monitor the President - it's a shared responsibility to ensure that there's always a professional newsteam with him. If, in fact, the President finds himself cloistered for more than a day or so, he'll typically be taken outside and walked around by his staff so the world can see that everything's OK.
If you look, you can probably find a report filed somewhere by the Pres-watcher staff for just about every day for the last thirty years. They're reporters after all - it they're on the job they may as well write about it, even if nobody's all that interested.
