REPORTER FINALLY NAILS BUSH

by Allen L Roland

" Mr President, you may need psychiatric help and we in the Press corps are a little scared for our country ...."

Recently Barry Lank, a crack reporter, was able to get a White House press pass. He asked the tough questions the other reporters are afraid to ask, but did we ever see the footage of this? No, of course not but believe me ~ there was shock and disbelief in the Press Corps that day. There is obviously a conspiracy of silence around the White House ~ but nothing escapes the Daily Kos.
Check out their embedded video link for the satirical details: http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2007/5/31/145433/684

Are you willing to generate a transcript of what transpired?

Lets not fall for this trap. The audio exists, terrific. But if it isn't turned into a transcript, it has significantly less relevance. I won't listen to your "embedded audio link", but I will READ the transcript if it is transcribed and available on the internet.

The audio is valuable as proof that the incident actually happened but the audio has less value than a transcription of the actual interaction.

It's a brilliant satire and the ending is a dead give away ~ I can't tell you how many people almost bought it as real .

The best satire always touches the truth.

uh oh, I think I gave away the surprise.

Sorry about that. I was mostly concerned with you getting the most bang for your media buck and never considered your referral to a sound bite might be for something of a satirical nature that never actually happened. Dohhhh!

Don't feel alone ~ scores of people almost got fooled on this one ~ probably a combination of wishful thinking and my effective framing of the story ~ but the ending of the video is almost a dead give away that it's a parody ;-)
