Bloomberg: Public should ‘demand’ Obama speak to news media

Oct. 25, 2012 8:58am Eddie Scarry

In a new interview with The Atlantic, Mayor Michael Bloomberg says it’s President Obama‘s “job” to be available to the press:

“I talk to the press five days a week … The president—how often does he talk to the press? His press secretary talks to the press every day, okay. But I happen to think the public should demand he should. I think he should; I think that’s his job.”

Yesterday Obama’s traveling press secretary Jen Psaki said the president “does interviews every single day.” But it’s more likely that Bloomberg was referring to the national news media when he said “press;” not the Tonight Show‘s Jay Leno.

Once upon a time, the Press was important, and the President was the Head of the Executive Branch. Now the Press and the Wannabe Dictator, have both shown their hand; it is one.

Personally, the only thing I want to heard from Obama is ” all questions shall be directed to my attorney “, and ” Guilty, your Honor.”
