The
Politico title is misleading; it should read, "Obama seeks
critique-free press," since the Obama administration has embarked on a
strategy to go above the traditional White House press corps
by reaching out to liberal commentators, local reporters and ethnic
media that team Obama deems friendly to their causes. In other words,
Team Obama doesn't want to be subjected to the scrutiny of the WH press
corps as all previous presidents have done: http://www.hyscience.com/archives/2009/03/politico_obama.php
