Im not here to argue about the government and their procedures. I fully understand how they operate and am not questioning that. I also fully understand how the media operates and guarantee you the writer of the AP PRESS reports will no longer have a job when this is said and done. Either that or a policy will be put in place to avoid similar situations.
