MSNBC’s Andrea Mitchell: We No Longer Have a Free Press in the United States
‘We are the only foreign ministry around the world that has a reputation — that has a policy of briefing every day, going back to the 1950s’
RUSH EXCERPT:
MITCHELL: "And just one more point to bring that home. We are the only foreign ministry around the world that has a reputation, that has a policy of briefing every day, going back to the 1950s to the Eisenhower administration, and it's one of the things we tell people in Iraq and in Afghanistan and other parts of the world, as they are just beginning after their first elections to have a free press or try to have a free press, and it's been a model for the world, and we no longer have that."
