Kurtz Laments Reporters' Frustrations Covering HRC
Washington Post's Howard Kurtz writes today that reporters covering Hillary Clinton are struggling mightly for access -- and just to keep up with the candidate ...
"National correspondents are increasingly frustrated by a lack of access to Clinton. They spend much of their time in rental cars chasing her from one event to the next, because the campaign usually provides no press bus or van. Life on the bus means journalists don't have to worry about luggage or directions or getting left behind, since they are part of the official motorcade. News organizations foot the bill for such transportation, but campaigns have to staff and coordinate the buses -- and deal with the constant presence of their chroniclers."
