A cute moment containing the germ of an idea by which he can turn the righties who dislike him instantly to his side: Be aggressive with the press. As evidence, I refer you to the enthralled comments in last night’s post about the British MP — from Labour, no less — who got up in the face of a BBC anchor by demanding to know how much she makes per year. That’s how you win over media-hating conservatives, Gibbsy. Call Jennifer Loven a shill. Tell Chuck Todd he could stand to lose a few. Take a swing at Tapper the next time he gets uppity. Peace through strength!
Update (Ed): Tommy Christopher attended this briefing and gives his eyewitness account. We talked about this on today’s show with Caleb Howe, and the consensus was that Gibbs got an easy moment here — and that some in the WHPC need a lesson in professionalism.

I’m with Gibbs on this one. That was LOL funny!
The Press were acting like a bunch of unprofessional clowns there. What a circus indeed! No wonder they have no time to report real news.

What a joke.
This is like some high school class project with all the fumbling around,joking,and laughing.
I hope it is not lost on these idiots while they are flapping around with each other watching the dow in the right hand corner taking the same path as our economy,heading south quickly.
Does anyone watching this actually believe that this group of activists is investigating and reporting what is really going on in government.
What a bunch of lapdogs.

What are you talking about? Their buddies. This is just playful antics. Like a slumber party. When the cameras go off, the pillow fight begins.
