This is not about Iran. This is about the Whitehouse planting questioners, along with pre-approved questions. “I am glad he got the opportunity to put forward the thoughts of the people in Iran. Maggieo” This isn’t about “opportunity” because it was pre-arranged and with pre-approved questions. Seriously do you actually believe that no other reporter would have asked Obama about Iran? News conference, with pre-arranged and with pre-approved questions is not a “News conference” at all!, it is propaganda . That’s how its done in a Banana Republic. “If you had been reading Nico Pitney’s excellent coverage of the Iran crisis,you would have known that he was going to be asked a question”

On his blog he put it to his readers in Iran what they wanted to ask. For me at least there was no surprise that he was called upon to ask a question. I am glad he got the opportunity to put forward the thoughts of the people in Iran.
