Obama receives newspaper award in closed press event
The Obama administration made an event in which the president is to receive a newspaper association’s award closed to press.
President Obama received the National Newspaper Publisher Association’s “Newsmaker of the Year” award, which was ironically closed to the media, the Los Angeles Times noted Friday.
“Later in the afternoon, the President and the First Lady will attend a reception with the National Newspaper Publisher Association in the State Dining Room, where they will be presented the Newsmaker of the Year award,” the public version of the president’s schedule said. “This event is closed press.”
