Gonzo presser: No microphones for the press questions.. |
|
They do this all the time. I noticed it big-time during the 2000 election coup.
We don't get to really hear the questions. Only the response spin from whatever fascist they stick in front of the mike.
I believe "shot-gun" directional mikes have been around since the late-forties, but I could be wrong...maybe the early-fifties. Does anyone think this is just persistant oversight on the part of whoever is producing this crap?

1. I couldn't agree more! |

That really pisses me off when we cannot hear the probing question, only the slimy spin.

And, they had him standing in the center of the office- looking so official.

3. I always put on closed caption during pressers just for that reason. |
