Ocasio-Cortez bans press from covering campaign event

[mAlice]

“We wanted to help create a space where community members felt comfortable and open to express themselves without the distraction of cameras and press. These were the first set of events where the press has been excluded,” campaign spokesman Corbin Trent said. “This is an outlier and will not be the norm. We’re still adjusting our logistics to fit Alexandria’s national profile.”

Alexandria’s national profile.”

What is that, I wonder? A shining example of the total failure of our education system?

She wants voters to have access to her without having to push through media members. She is a celebrity but still wishes to stay humble.

The epitome of unwavering support for freedom of the press. In a fascist socialist kind of way.

She has been clear about her support for the press. Unlike Trump, she respects the role of the press corps.

You are not getting what AJ had to say. You are part of the problem. When you go out in public, do you wear a mask? Just wondering.

Exactly, right. Paine intended. It is just common sense, and all. Who knew that we would have to fight our own government to remain free. Our founders are, absolutely, spinning in their graves. God bless the USA, and go Trump!

So, you respect someone by telling them that others are right to be afraid of them? Seems off to me. You want the press to stay in the back, or on the sides since its a voter event, sure, but banning them seems like you are afraid of embarrassing sounds bites.

I can see your head exploding if Trump did this.

She's been clear as mud about what she thinks the role of the press corps is, and it's highly unlikely she's given it any thought at all. Unlike Trump, she is a true fascist socialist, and an evil little lying Ms.Mussolini.

Singing Sally boi.
