The first thing I noticed about Obama’s dog and pony show press conference was the staged question from The Huffington Post about Iran.
It was obvious the president knew what the question was before hand which kind of defeats the purpose of a press conference.
Politico says of the exchange:
Reporters typically don’t coordinate their questions for the president before press conferences, so it seemed odd that Obama might have an idea what the question would be. Also, it was a departure from White House protocol by calling on The Huffington Post second, in between the AP and Reuters.
Like everything else with Obama, his press conferences are perfectly coordinated Hollywood productions that are of little actual value.
