Sure enough... Obama's press conference had picked reporters beforehand

I reported earlier that I thought I had seen Barack choose reporters from a list that was on his podium. According to the WSJ:

About half-way through President Obama's press conference Monday night, he had an unscripted question of his own. "All, Chuck Todd," the President said, referring to NBC's White House correspondent. "Where's Chuck?" He had the same strange question about Fox News's Major Garrett: "Where's Major?"

The problem wasn't the lighting in the East Room. The President was running down a list of reporters preselected to ask questions. The White House had decided in advance who would be allowed to question the President and who was left out.

Yep.

The most transparent administration ever.

Is anyone still buying that load of shit?
