These instances weren't out of malice or anger, like Trump's. Obama never cited fake news like a whiny baby and blocked them specifically. It's not like Obama was selective during these intstances, which were justified imo if you read the article, Trump is allowing certain outlets to be there and other's not to be there. That's an issue with self insecurity and him being afraid to be called out on shit that he's said and doesn't remember he said, and swears up and down he didn't say it, then the press brings up exact quotes and he throws a fit. Obama and Trump...no way in hell they're comparable. One has class, the other doesn't. |
From another instance that i linked above:
The campaign says that a limited number of seats forced it to make the tough decision of which journalists would be permitted to follow the Democratic presidential candidate in the last four days of the campaign, but the papers are calling foul, claiming they were targeted for their editorial-page positions and kicked off while nonpolitical publications like Glamour and Jet magazines remained on board.
Eliminated from the plane's traveling press were the Washington Times, the New York Post and the Dallas Morning News.
My bad I forgot Glamour and Jet magazines > Washington Times, the New York Post and the Dallas Morning News
This instance is nearly exactly the same cherry picking of Jet and Glamour over real political publications because said publications were critical of him at the time.
In my opinion one is just a more eloquent liar than the other but to each their own.
