Hillary Closed To The Media

A major appearance by Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton in Buffalo was
suddenly closed to the media Monday, a week after the senator lambasted
reporters for lacking enough "spine" to stand up to the Bush administration.

In a conference call, Clinton said: "I did not make that decision."

A week ago at a fund-raising event, Clinton said, "The press is missing in action, with all due respect".

Senior county Democratic officials told The Buffalo News early in the day that Clinton aides had told County Democratic Chairman Leonard R.
Lenihan that the senator's people wanted the event closed to the media.

But later, Lenihan said that "it was my decision" to bar the media.

Uh-huh. Yeah, right.
