 She's speaking with semaphores Ben Smith. Quote, it's clear the best news reporters in Washington have failed in the first duty of journalism to hold power accountable. It is our duty to poke through White House smoke screens and find out the truth.

Shame on the White House press corps for not having pierced the veil of secrecy surrounding the president.
