Who was the person yelling at President Obama during the news conference ?

It sounded like he (I think it was a man) wanted an answer on Iran ? President Obama ignored him and went on to his next questioner.

Jessica Yellin.

Q Bill Mahr apologized for what he said about -- (inaudible) -- should apologize for what they said about that?

THE PRESIDENT: Jessica.

Q Thank you, Mr. President.

THE PRESIDENT: Thank you.

There is no identification in the transcript who the yelling "Q" was. President Obama said "Jessica Yellin".

on edit: The Daily Caller's "correspondent" was the one who yelled that question. I won't link to that site here, you can google the site.
